Notes from the biomass

In August, there will be an EMBO world course on Computational Biology that I co-organize with a number of colleagues, who also taught at the event in Mexico last year. Our course, entitled “From genomes to cells and systems” is intended for PhD students and PostDoc and is aimed to provide basic skills in computational biology with a particular focus on the treatment of data from next generation sequencing technologies. This year’s focus is on the application to the study of human disease and less on metagenomics.

The application deadline is April 1st, 2008, there’s more information at the EMBO website of the course.
