Training School in Vienna
Training school “Computational methods in MDR research” 17-19 September 2019 in Vienna (Austria)
The aim of the training school is to:
(a) make scientists working in medicine/(molecular) biology/chemistry aware of and acquainted with the possibilities of computational approaches in MDR research
(b) make bioinformaticians aware of the special challenges and problems in cancer and MDR research
The training school will be split in theoretical parts (day 1: 1,2,3; day 2: 1,3; day 3: 2) followed by practical applications using example data (the other points). At the end of the training school, medicine/(molecular) biology/chemistry trainees should be able to conduct simple analyses using the taught techniques and bioinformaticians should have gained a deeper insight into multidrug resistance research.
