The agenda focused on finalizing scientific achievements, refining tool integration, and coordinating the final stages of work within the consortium. Technical discussions covered advanced use cases for extreme near-data processing across cloud, HPC, and serverless computing environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-a-cross-sector-collaboration\">A Cross-Sector Collaboration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The event reflected NEARDATA\u2019s interdisciplinary nature, bringing together experts from leading universities, research centers, and technology companies across Europe. Participants included researchers from institutions such as <a href=\"https:\/\/tu-dresden.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">TU Dresden<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.urv.cat\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Universitat Rovira i Virgili<\/a>, data scientists from public agencies like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/organisations\/uk-health-security-agency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">UK Health Security Agency<\/a>, and engineers from private-sector partners including <strong>Dell Technologies<\/strong>, <strong>KIO Networks Espa\u00f1a<\/strong>, and <strong>Scontain GmbH<\/strong>. The clinical dimension was represented by specialists from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nct-dresden.de\/en\/homepage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">National Center for Tumor Diseases<\/a> (NCT Dresden), while the <a href=\"http:\/\/bsc.es\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Barcelona Supercomputing Center <\/a>contributed its renowned HPC expertise. With Sano hosting the event, Krak\u00f3w served as a meeting point for specialists from across Europe working at the intersection of data-intensive research and technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-technical-outcomes-and-shared-goals\">Technical Outcomes and Shared Goals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">During the three-day meeting, the consortium reviewed progress on key deliverables, coordinated final tool-chain integration efforts, and explored optimization of data processing pipelines. Use-case discussions demonstrated real-world implementations of near-data processing\u2014particularly in biomedical and genomic domains\u2014enabled by the project\u2019s technological advances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-strengthening-ties-and-future-cooperation\">Strengthening Ties and Future Cooperation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The Krakow meeting was not only a checkpoint for technical alignment but also a platform for building long-term collaboration. Informal side sessions allowed participants to exchange research ideas and discuss possibilities for joint initiatives beyond the NEARDATA framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-international-visibility-and-impact\">International Visibility and Impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The consortium\u2019s visibility also continues to grow internationally. Just weeks before the meeting, <a href=\"https:\/\/sano.science\/people\/piotr-kica\/\">Piotr Kica<\/a>, Scientific Programmer at Sano, represented the project at the 25th IEEE International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Internet Computing (CCGrid 2025) in Troms\u00f8, Norway. Together with <a href=\"https:\/\/sano.science\/seminars\/challenges-of-running-scientific-workloads\/\">Micha\u0142 Orzechowski<\/a> (Scientific Programmer) and <a href=\"https:\/\/sano.science\/people\/maciej-malawski\/\">Maciej Malawski<\/a> (Director of Sano, Research Team Leader of Extreme-scale Data and Computing), he presented a serverless implementation of the STAR RNA-sequencing aligner, showcasing its scalability and cost-efficiency in AWS cloud environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-photo-highlights\">Photo Highlights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Below, you\u2019ll find a gallery of moments from the Krakow meeting \u2014 from brainstorming sessions and technical briefings to informal networking that brought consortium members closer together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-what-s-next-for-neardata\">What\u2019s Next for NEARDATA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer eplus-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">With the project entering its final months, the Krakow meeting reinforced both the scientific rigor and the collaborative spirit that have driven NEARDATA since its inception. The team now moves forward with final deliverables and plans for post-project knowledge dissemination and practical application of developed tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\"
