Creative minds, your attention please — our licensing partners, Appistry, are holding a competition! From the [Appistry Pipeline Challenge webpage](http://www.appistry.com/contest/):
> The Appistry Pipeline Challenge will reward and support one winning proposal for a creative pipeline that will make a difference in clinical research and precision medicine. We’ll provide the winner with a complete NGS analysis package valued at $70,000 including commercial-grade bioinformatics tools for variant calling and somatic mutation analysis, software and hardware for developing and executing pipelines at scale, and a year’s worth of support so that you can make your idea a reality.
There’s more detailed information on the contest webpage of course, and if that doesn’t answer all your questions, Appistry is holding a live webinar tomorrow (Thursday 7/24) to give additional details and answer questions.
The deadline for submissions is August 15th, so if you have an idea, better get on it!
