Guix will be featured at the annual conference of the French Reproducible Research Network, 19–21 May 2026, Bordeaux, France.

The event is a mostly French-speaking three-day conference discussing reproducible research in a variety of research domains, and open to all.

Program

The first day, May 19th, is dedicated to reproducible software deployment with Guix—a key aspect on the way to reproducible research workflows.

The day will start with experience reports from scientists who have been relying on Guix for their work in their respective domains: electronics, numerical simulation, medical imaging, and geomatics.

The second half of the day starts with two parallel hands-on session:

• Marek Felšöci will present how to build on Guix to publish reproducible scientific results;
• Andreas Enge will guide the audience on a journey towards their first package definition.

A panel will conclude the day with the ambition to tackle this key question: What are the barriers to reproducible computational workflows today? The panelists will share their views as researchers from several disciplines and as a system administrator of a major high-performance computing (HPC) cluster.

Interested?

All three days of the event are well worth the trip, giving an opportunity to question reproducibility from in a multidisciplinary context. If you haven’t done so yet, there’s still time for you to register!

The French Reproducible Research Network has been fostering discussions across many domains for the past few years. It is itself part of the Global Federation of Reproducibility Networks, all working to improve research practices and increase trustworthiness of scientific results.
