Tomorrow, SWAT4HCLS 2026 will start, again in Amsterdam.\nThe first SWAT4LS I attended was also in Amsterdam, and the second meeting in Amsterdam I was also there. And I was in Cambridge (see\nthis post),\nAntwerp (no post), and at least to one of the two\nLeiden meetings (also no posts, it seems).

\n\n

I am looking forward to meet old friends, new friends (some whom I never met in person), and\nrecent collaborators (that I never met in person).\nFor those who will not be in Amsterdam, you can follow the meeting on social media with\nthe hashtag #swat4hcls. And there is also\nthis BioHackrXiv Fediwall, for those in the\nfediverse.

Scholia demo

\n\n

I will give a demo to update people on the work in the Scholia project with\nDaniel Mietchen, Peter Patel-Schneider, Konrad Linden, Johannes Kalmbach,\nLars Willighagen, Wolfgang Fahl, and Hannah Bast (also keynote in Amsterdam)\nto update the SPARQL queries\nwe use to visualize data in Wikidata to SPARQL 1.1 so that it can run on\nQlever.\nThe abstract can be found in Wikimedia Commons.

\n\n

This was the outcome of many years figuring how to ensure Scholia could remain working. The\nWikidata RDF graph split\nhas given us many headaches, so many that just before christmas it became it could\nbe possible to survive the split, I was so happy, I realize I want to share this news. So, we teamed\nup and wrote this demonstration contribution abstract. Thanks to everyone who made this happen!\nJust to be clear, we are not done yet. The system is not running outside the Wikimedia Foundation\nplatforms.

\n\n

One of the reviewer comments requested a Scholia page for the meeting.\nIt has not been updated for the accepted speakers, but you can look at pages for past meetings\nto get an idea what you will find.

SWAT4HCLS Biohackathon 2026

\n\n

There will also be a biohackathon again,\nof course, with the option for BioHackRxiv reports.\nThere are already several pitches,\nincluding one that I submitted about Scholia.
