The content of your news post goes here (unless you set external: true in the metadata)

• tags: for example: new tutorial, transcriptomics, galaxy, etc

• cover: if you dont supply a cover image, we have defined some defaults. E.g. the "galaxy news" logo if one of your tags is galaxy, or the GTN logo otherwise
