May, 13 – 18 | St. Petersburg
Systems Biology Workshop 2018 will be held on May 13-18 in a countryside hotel near St. Petersburg, Russia.
For the fifth time Bioinformatics Institute, ITMO University and Washington University in St. Louis organize Systems Biology Workshop with invited lecturers from Washington University in St. Louis, Harvard University and Columbia University.
This practical course in computational and systems biology is focused on the cross-over from bioinformatics to experimental biology, highlighting biology underlying systems level data and corresponding experimental designs for data acquisition and hypothesis testing. We will consider approaches to generation of system level data ranging from gene expression, RNA-, ChiP-, and exome-sequencing up to high-throughput metabolomics and network-based data integration.
The workshop is focused on those who want to learn about computational & systems biology approaches and their applications. People from both academia and industry are invited to apply. Basic knowledge of biology and ability to work with Linux command line is required.
Attendees of the workshop will be selected on a competitive basis.
