KEY DATES

Student travel scholarships – CLOSE on 31 May 2018

Online registration - Early bird CLOSE Sunday 10 June 2018, Normal CLOSE SUNDAY 24 June 2018

The series of winter schools is designed to introduce bioinformatics, mathematical and computational biology to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, postdoctoral researchers and others working in the fields of biology, mathematics, statistics, computer science, information technology, complex systems analysis, and chemical and medical sciences and engineering. Themes * Next generation sequencing & bioinformatics * Data science and machine learning for bioinformatics * Bio-data analysis and visualisation * Advanced microscopy analysis and modelling Featured speakers -- John Quackenbush, Harvard University -- Melissa Little, Murdoch Children’s Research Institute -- Sean O’Donoghue, Garvan Institute of Medical Research -- Simone Linz, University of Auckland -- Cameron Bean, Artificial Intelligence for Genomics, Max Kelsen Brisbane -- Joshua Ho, Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute Speakers at Winter School are chosen as great presenters and world leaders in their field. For the complete list of speakers and presentation titles, visit websitehttp://bioinformatics.org.au/winterschool/https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/tDkjClxwAVHXw87ncGHJWa?domain=bioinformatics.org.au. Workshop & bootcamp A Genomics Virtual Laboratory training workshop (limited places) will be run during the Winter School on Wednesday 4th July. A Software Carpentry Bootcamp (9-10 July) is also being run in conjunction with the Winter School. Both events were fully subscribed in days last year, so register early to avoid disappointment.

Feedback from previous Winter Schools “I would strongly encourage all biologists even without any mathematical background to attend the Winter School.” “Fantastic speakers.” “Great networking opportunities.” “It takes special talent to pull off a conference people actually enjoy attending and it was thanks to some of the more charismatic orators, that I was able to enjoy the Winter School so much.” “Gave me the confidence I need to talk to other people and bioinformaticians about the analysis of my NGS data. Thanks."
