The BigData@Heart annual meeting, the second come together of the whole consortium, will take place in Berlin, Germany on 12 and 13 April. We are grateful that Bayer will be our host at this annual consortium meeting. The main objective for the meeting is to update on progress/highlights in the first year of the project and to define the roadmap for the next 12 months. The meeting will be a mix of WP breakout sessions and plenary sessions, where, among others, junior staff in the consortium will present their work.
