Conferences of interest in 2019
- Winter School in Mathematical and Computation Biology, 1-5 July 2019, Brisbane
- AGTA 2019, 7-9 October Melbourne
- International Conference on Genome Informatics (GIW) and ABACBS 2019, 25-29 November, Sydney
Our goal is to improve knowledge diffusion and empower researchers in the use of bioinformatics, biostatistics and biodata techniques.
We provide a range of flexible seminar series, courses and workshops – ranging from introductory courses to advanced bioinformatics.
- Hands-on training workshops: to equip researchers with essential skills to carry out primary analyses of their own
- Seminars: to provide a refresher on fundamental concepts and introduce more complex and advanced ones
- Analysis Hotel: to provide guidance and facilitated access to tools, applications, data and resources by being embedded within QFAB team
- Carpentries: to learn data management and processing by doing
- Clinics: to provide advice on analysis methods, experimental design, interpretation of results, choice and access to resources and compute infrastructure through short consultations
