Dear NFDI4lifescience Community,
de.NBI & ELIXIR Germany<https://www.denbi.de/> and GHGA<http://www.ghga.de/> (The German Human Genome Phenome Archive) are inviting you to the next episode of our joint Webinar Series: Galaxy for analysis of human health data.
This webinar will highlight several new features and tools added to Galaxy over the last year that further increase the platform's usability, in particular for multi-omics human health data.
Specific topics include, among a few others:
* integration of Flexynesis for deep-learning-based exploration of multi-omics data, including cBioportal studies, as a tool in Galaxy
* the new CELLxGENE integration into Galaxy
* new data resources directly accessible from the Galaxy user interface, like Tabula Sapiens reference atlas data
* enhancements around Galaxy's storage options that allow users to bring their own cloud storage and connect it to their Galaxy user account
The webinar will be held by Wolfgang Maier from the University of Freiburg. The event is in English, it takes approx. 60 minutes and will be held on 14th January 2026 at 13:00 CET (available afterwards on demand<https://www.youtube.com/@ghga-thegermanhumangenome>). Attendance is free, but we ask for registration.<https://dkfz-de.zoom.us/meeting/register/9X8ohJdoSHeAZ8g8ivQlLQ#/registrati…>

Dear colleague,
I would like to invite you to the upcoming WiNoDa<https://winoda.de/en/english/> <https://winoda.de/en/english/> webinar “Leverage the growing wave of ecological data using AI image recognition”, taking place on December 2nd at 1pm (CET) on Zoom.
[cid:6dc5db6b-37cc-4c40-9e17-06a00ed092cd]
Camera traps and other autonomous sensors are generating more wildlife data than ever before. This has enormous potential to extract valuable information, but manually sorting through such datasets is often too time- and resource-intensive.
Artificial Intelligence can speed up this work by automatically classifying large volumes of information in minutes. Yet AI is not perfect: miss-classifications can easily distort downstream ecological insights if not handled correctly.
Join the webinar with Timm Haucke<https://timm.haucke.xyz/> from MIT to learn how to apply AI carefully in your research. You will discover:
*
How to run and evaluate AI models on your own ecological data
*
How to reduce the impact of classification errors on your analyses
*
A practical workflow for fitting species occupancy models using AI-generated labels from a real camera trap dataset
Designed for ecologists and biodiversity scientists seeking efficient and reliable ways to process sensor-derived data. Learn how to transform raw data into trustworthy ecological knowledge.
The event is free, in English and online. Register here and secure your spot: LINK<https://winoda.de/en/event/webinar-ecological-data-ai-image-recognition/>.
We hope to see you there!

Dear all,
We cordially invite you to the *NFDI4Earth Academy Coffee lecture -
"Scale Usually Wins: compute, data, and the bitter lesson for Earth &
industry"* (/Artemii Novoselov, Stripe/) *today*.
We’ll unpack the evidence behind scaling laws - Kaplan et al. (loss vs
params/tokens/compute) and Chinchilla (data-optimal scaling) - then test
the thesis in Earth-system modeling and geoscience. We’ll compare
academic incentives (benchmarks, novelty) to production constraints
(latency/$, throughput, drift, governance), and show where small,
specialized models still win. Case studies will include Earth
foundation/forecast models such as GraphCast, and AlphaEarth. We’ll
close with a pragmatic budgeting recipe: choose your token-to-parameter
target, plan for quantization/distillation, and align eval to mission
metrics.
*Key Details*:
Date: November 04, 2025
Time: 04:00 PM - 05:00 PM
Venue: Online via Zoom
The lecture is open to all. To join the lecture, *please register* here
<https://gfz-de.zoom.us/meeting/register/TiMa7w9KQYSiVGyCzKzvZA#/registration>.
Grab a coffee, tea, and join us virtually to expand your knowledge; also
in our upcoming lectures

We are looking forward to your participation.
Best regards,
