Last week the 2017 cohort of Software Sustainability Institute Fellows was announced and included Epigenetics group member Dr Eilis Hannon. 18 Fellowships were awarded, each of whom will receive £3000 to fund activities over the next 15 months in line with the goals of the organisation.

The Software Sustainability Institute is focused on improving the quality of research software by helping researchers ensure their custom software is accessible and useable by the wider community. In addition fellows will attend a range of Conferences and Collaborations Workshops to encourage them develop their own knowledge and skills base and work together to improve the quality of research software in their own domains.
