We are organising this high quality, hands-on workshop to provide the training of Bioinformatics, Genomics, and Ensembl Genome Browser usages. In addition to this, we have included some sessions of Network and Structural Biology, with the training of Cytoscape and Pymol tools.
This workshop will be equally useful for the researchers working with any domain of life (e.g. microbes, animals, fungus, and plants) Its a very good opportunity to gain hands-on training with the trainers of international reputation.
Who can participate: Students (B.Sc./B.Tech/M.Sc./M.Tech), Research Fellows, PhD Student, Faculty, Scientists, and Company Personals.
