The French Bioinformatics Community has embraced Galaxy since its inception, with a pivotal moment being the Galaxy Tour de France led by Nate Coraor, Anton Nekrutenko, and James Taylor in 2012. This adoption has led to the establishment of over 10 Galaxy servers across France, catering to diverse local needs and specialized thematic areas such as ecology, biodiversity, NGS, proteomics, and more.

To foster cohesion and synergy within the community, a Galaxy Working Group led by the French Bioinformatics Institute facilitates regular interactions.

### Objectives:

1. Meeting every 2 months

2. Connect Galaxy users, developers, admins across France,

3. Share knowledge (ELIXIR, Galaxy Community, etc),

4. Support UseGalaxy.fr, and

5. Combat misconceptions about Galaxy within the French scientific community
