NVIDIA Parabricks GPU-accelerated FQ2BAM is now available in Galaxy! We benchmarked its runtime against BWA-MEM2 and BWA across five runs and find that mapping and QC metrics remain essentially identical to CPU-based alignment—while delivering a major speedup for Galaxy workflows. https://galaxyproject.org/news/2025-12-15-fq2bam/
Freiburg Galaxy team recently joined experts in Göttingen for the 1st Open Architecture Workshop to help shape the future technical foundations of the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). The team presented their cloud-oriented architecture and shared critical insights from the PLANT DataHUB regarding scalable storage and the "Software as a Service" approach. Read the full report to discover how collaborative efforts and common building blocks, such as ARC RO-crates, are driving (1/2)
Join the newly formed Tool Developers Special Interest Group (SIG) to collaborate on high-quality tool maintenance and standardize best practices across the Galaxy ecosystem. This initiative offers a dedicated space for mentorship, peer review, and community-driven development for developers of all experience levels. https://galaxyproject.org/news/2025-11-20-tools-sig/

At the EOSC Symposium 2025, a standout example was the BERD@NFDI B-Plan use case, a project demonstrating how the Galaxy Europe platform provides the analytical engine to transform complex, unstructured planning data into FAIR research assets for the entire European research community. https://galaxyproject.org/news/2025-11-21-eosc-symposium-berd/
As colleagues from CCAMLR / Antarctica conservation from Belgium are coming to Concarneau marine station to work on Galaxy Ecology use in their projects, we propose to create an open event, where colleagues from CCAMLR / Antarctica conservation from UK, New Zealand and others are interested to participate remotely, so people wanted to learn how to use and contribute to Galaxy Ecology European Platform during these 3 days.
📣 How can I analyse my texts, media, and data in the humanities and social sciences?
You want to analyse your media, text or data digitally, but do not know how? You only have a laptop but no programming skills or money for expensive programs? Do you want to consider good research data management, but do not know how? Galaxy is here for you!

Galaxy showed how 'one framework, one workflow, many communities' can run cross-disciplinary imaging analyses on the emerging EOSC Federation. Here is what we presented, with slides and video. https://galaxyproject.org/news/2025-11-13-eosc-symposium2025/
Data Terra, the EOSC thematic node for the environment, demonstrated how the Galaxy platform accelerates environmental research through interoperable, FAIR data workflows within the EOSC Federation. From satellite plumes to ecosystem blooms. https://galaxyproject.org/news/2025-11-18-eosc-symposium-earth-science/
CELLxGENE-VIP (Visualization In Plugin) is an extension of the original CELLxGENE: https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene tool developed by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.
It can efficiently extract deep insights from single-cell RNA sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and emerging multiome datasets. (1/3)
