I see in TeSS that there are no SIB courses (in the Organizer filter at the left hand side) nor in the Country filter (Switzerland) except one that I have entered yesterday by hand (a SIB certification course https://tess.elixir-europe.org/events/cas-personalized-molecular-oncology) :

https://tess.elixir-europe.org/events?organizer=SIB+Swiss+Institute+of+Bioinformatics

There must be a bug somewhere since we have at least 20 courses in our list of upcoming events, and they only appear in the City filter (left hand). Is there a problem with the scrapper or is there anything I should do?

Our courses do not appear either in the Target audience filter either. What should I/you/us do to solve this? SIB courses are always for graduate, industry, academics, PhD (students and graduated).

They don't appear in the Keywords filter either. How could I/you/us improve this?

Thanks a lot.

Commenting out the hard-coded Switzerland string in the existing scraper should provide a quick fix, particularly as we're no longer geocoding in the scrapers. A similar "fix" is available for the target audience as they state that it's always a particular set.

Keywords are more of a problem as they don't seem to have supplied anything, unless we come up with some sort of machine learning solution as @fbacall suggested in the call (IIRC). That would be a rather more involved matter...
