Bioinformatics & Biostatistics Workshop 2017

Biostatistics and bioinformatics involve the theory and application of statistics and/or computer science to a variety of biological topics. The recent advances in basic biology, medicine, pharmacology and agriculture present new challenges for the data analysis and the related tool/source development in biostatistics and bioinformatics area. The workshop aims to provide training to graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and multidisciplinary researchers who are interested or already engaged in statistical and bioinformatical analyses in their own research area. We are delighted to give you a warm welcome to Bioinformatics & Biostatistics Workshop 2017!
