2018 Data Intensive Biology Summer Institute at UC Davis¶
From June 25th - July 14th, we’re planning to run several computational training events at the University of California, Davis – the main event will be the 9th annual ANGUS workshop, a two-week workshop for biologists to learn basic bioinformatics and cloud computing. We are also planning a Software Carpentry Instructor Training, several Software and Data Carpentry workshops, and a regional CarpentryConnect conference.
All of this will be taking place at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, on the main campus of UC Davis (in Davis, CA). Read more…
Everyone is welcome, from everywhere! Grad students, postdocs, faculty, staff, industry, non-profits, teachers, journalists, and grant managers may all find these workshops useful. We welcome applications from international students. Read more…
The two week workshop will cost approximately $850, and room & board will be approximately $970 total for non-local attendees (excluding lunch).
