The Common Fund SPARC program, which partners with CFDE, has an upcoming Codeathon that may be of interest to CFDE members. Here is a blurb to advertise it in the CFDE newsletter:
The third annual virtual SPARC Codeathon will take place from August 5-7. This global prize competition is currently recruiting participants to make SPARC data and resources more Findable, Interoperable, Accessible, and Reusable (FAIR). Any interested participant can join projects spanning data visualization, simulation tool development, python workflow creation, and more to compete for $50,000 in prizes. Follow this link to learn more and sign up today! https://bit.ly/Codeathon-SPARC
The information on Common Fund funding opportunities that went out in the last newsletter is also outdated, as those opportunities have closed.
Thank you so much!
The next meeting is Tuesday, August 1st, at 2 pm ET/ 11 am PT. There is no July Cross-Pollination Event planned. Regular Cross-Pollination events take place on the first Tuesday of every month. View the Cross-Pollination Schedule for more details. Email support@cfde.atlassian.net if you would like to present.

As we transition some of our services to new accounts there should be a flurry of new meeting invitations (especially for monthly and bi-weekly CFDE-DCC meetings). Please keep a lookout for updated invites in your e-mail feed to make sure you have the most up-to-date invitations on your calendar. Remember also that you can always rely on meeting agendas for links and scheduling, or contact the helpdesk (support@cfde.atlassian.net) if any issues arise.
