ENVMETAGEN / EMBL-EBI WORKSHOP: GENOMICS, TRANSCRIPTOMICS AND METAGENOMICS TOOLS AND RESOURCES FOR BIOLOGY RESEARCH

Under the scope of the ERA Chair EnvMetaGen, CIBIO-InBIO is organizing, together with the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) and the University of Porto, a 3-days spring school in Porto, on genome-wide tools and resources that can be applied to ecology research. This training will take place from May 7th to 10th, 2019, at the facilities of Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto.

This training session is destined to MSc and PhD students from relevant scientific areas, with a focus on ecology, as well as early-career researchers. There are 30 places available. No prior bioinformatics knowledge is needed but undergraduate level biology or related degree is recommended to follow the course. Candidates from both Portugal AND other countries are welcome.

Registration is free of charge but mandatory. A short description of your motivation to the course will be asked. Places will be attributed on a first come first served basis, provided the criteria above are met.

Applications should be submitted by April 14, 2019.
