Student proposals

You will need to write a project proposal that is part of your GSOC application process. We suggest you use Google Docs and share the links with dev@taverna so the Taverna community can help you develop your proposal before you submit your application to GSOC.

Mentors from Apache Taverna

We'll need one primary mentor per accepted proposal - although the other mentors and the rest of dev@taverna will help.

  • Alan R Williams
  • Stian Soiland-Reyes
  • Ian Dunlop 
  • Donal Fellows

You may also be interested in submitting any CWL-related proposal to the Open Bioinformatics Foundation as a GSOC host project, where Michael Crusoe has agreed to mentor any CWL-Taverna projects.
