Join us for an open developer forum exploring how R and Rust can work together in bioinformatics and Bioconductor development. Organised and hosted by Lluís Revilla (Bioconductor Community Advisory Board), this online session will discuss technical and practical aspects of using Rust alongside R – discussing extendr, Rust-based package development, and real-world use cases. Whether you’re Rust-curious or already experimenting, all are welcome.
