Attendees:
The course is aimed principally at advanced doctoral students or post-doctoral researchers who need to apply next-generation sequencing and large-scale SNP genotyping data in medical studies. Applicants will be selected based on description of their background and future research projects to be submitted when applying the course. The number of attendees will be limited up to approximately 20.
Course fee:
Free
The course will be followed by a symposium with invited international speakers to provide perspectives on recent advances in understanding disease genomics. The symposium will be open to the course attendees and others from the scientific community. There are no fees for the symposium, but advance registration is recommended.
