Taking part in the **BOSC 2026 (Bioinformatics Open Source Conference)**, was a valuable learning experience for me. I appreciate the **Open Bioinformatics Foundation (OBF)** for supporting me with their fellowship, which made it possible for me to attend this event. OBF represents a non-profit group that promotes open source software and open science. Every year, it runs the BOSC flagship meeting to promote community-driven open science as a part of larger **ISMB(Intelligent System Molecular Biology)** Conference.

We'd want to insert the standard header here, see eg https://www.open-bio.org/2026/06/17/2026-06-17-francesco-micocci-bits2026/ - which would include links to the conference etc. Otherwise I'd have said use some links here.

There's a typo 'canddate'. Unlike the USA, in the UK we just say PhD student.
