Computational Genomics Research Seminar
The computational genomics group seminar is devoted to various
aspects of computational biology in a broad context. We also are very
interested in "pure" biology talks that bring up
computational problems. The forum includes group members as
well as other TAU researchers involved in the interplay between
computation and biology. The setting is very informal and allows for
maximal interaction between the speaker and the audience. Depending
on the speaker's wish, we either make the seminar for group members
only, or announce it on the Bioinformatics Network of Tel Aviv
University.
We usually reserve at least an hour for the talk
followed by discussion which may be extended over lunch. Seminars are
being held on Wednesdays 11:00-13:00 at 309 Shreiber building on the
Tel-Aviv University Campus (near Bet Hatefutzot).
