Dear NFDI4Microbiota Followers, We cordially invite you to our 8th NFDI4Microbiota Community Workshop “Looking back, looking forward: Practical tools to support your research”, taking place on April 28, 1:00-2:30 pm (online). As the first funding period ends in September 2026, this workshop provides an opportunity to take stock of what has been achieved so far and to look ahead toward a second funding phase. Your input will be especially valuable in shaping the future direction of NFDI4Microbiota. What to expect: The workshop will focus on practical tools and solutions that directly support your research — from data management to analysis workflows. Who should attend? Researchers, data stewards, bioinformaticians, software developers, and anyone working with microbiome data More information and registration here<https://events.hifis.net/event/3894/><https://events.hifis.ne…nt/3894/>.
