sounds like a good spot for a #biohackathon too :)
2025 has come to an end. This year, we published 45 preprints resulting from 16 different biohackathons. Sometimes reports come in late, as we will see. A quick list of #biohackathon meetings with preprints in 2025:
- DBCLS BioHackathon 2023 #BH23JP: https://index.biohackrxiv.org/tag/BH23JP

New website (see link from main post). It shows in the left column the BioHackrXiv "BHX" logo with short explanation what BHX is. On the right is the new content. Users no longer have to select a BioHackathon, but all that information is now extracted from the paper.md itself. The "Getting Started" box explains the process. Under this box is now only the two options to provide the paper, Option 1 being the repository URL, and the Option 2 is to upload a .zip file.
our preview website has been revamped: https://preview.biohackrxiv.org/

Want to make better use of ontologies? Check out on2vec created at DBCLS #biohackathon 2025...
It turns ontologies into embeddings you can actually use in ML models. Perfect for biomedical data, knowledge graphs, etc. osf.io/preprints/bi... github.com/david4096/on...
