African genomic medicine and microbiome datasets are usually not well characterized in terms of their origin, making it difficult to find and extract data for specific African ethnic groups or even countries. The Pan-African H3Africa Bioinformatics Network (H3ABioNet) recognized the need for developing data portals for African genomic medicine and African microbiomes to address this and ran a hackathon to initiate their development. The two portals were designed and significant progress was made in their development during the hackathon. All the participants worked in a very synergistic and collaborative atmosphere in order to achieve the hackathon's goals. The participants were divided into content and technical teams and worked over a period of 6 days. In response to one of the survey questions of what the participants liked the most during the hackathon, 55% of the hackathon participants highlighted the familial and friendly atmosphere, the team work and the diversity of team members and their expertise. This paper describes the preparations for the portals hackathon and the interaction between the participants and reflects upon the lessons learned about its impact on successfully developing the two data portals as well as building scientific expertise of younger African researchers. Database URL: The code for developing the two portals was made publicly available in GitHub repositories: [https://github.com/codemeleon/Database; https://github.com/codemeleon/AfricanMicrobiomePortal].

H3ABioNet 基因组医学和微生物组数据门户黑客马拉松程序

非洲基因组医学和微生物组数据集的起源通常没有得到很好的描述,因此很难找到和提取特定非洲族群甚至国家的数据。泛非 H3Africa 生物信息学网络 (H3ABioNet) 认识到需要开发非洲基因组医学和非洲微生物组的数据门户来解决这一问题,并举办了一场黑客马拉松来启动其开发。这两个门户网站是在黑客马拉松期间设计的,并且在开发方面取得了重大进展。所有参与者都在非常协同和协作的氛围中工作,以实现黑客马拉松的目标。参与者分为内容团队和技术团队,工作时间为 6 天。在回答参与者在黑客马拉松期间最喜欢什么的调查问题时,55% 的黑客松参与者强调了家庭友好的氛围、团队合作以及团队成员的多样性及其专业知识。本文介绍了门户黑客马拉松的准备工作以及参与者之间的互动,并反思了其对成功开发两个数据门户以及培养年轻非洲研究人员的科学专业知识的影响的经验教训。数据库 URL:开发这两个门户的代码已在 GitHub 存储库中公开提供:[https://github.com/codemeleon/Database;https://github.com/codemeleon/AfricanMicrobiomePortal]。
