Dear colleagues,
Announcing a new neuroscience summer course - “Bioinformatics for
the Neuroscientist”.
This course is part of the CAJAL Advanced Neuroscience Training
Programme sponsored by FENS and IBRO and hosted at the Bordeaux
School of Neuroscience in Bordeaux, France.
The Cajal Advanced Neuroscience Training “Bioinformatics for the
Neuroscientist” will provide students with a practical knowledge of
state of the art bioinformatics and modelling methods used to
understand the molecular and cellular basis of neuronal function and
pathologies. The course will feature introductory lectures about
theory and tools, practical hands on sessions, and scientific
seminars illustrating how bioinformatics answered specific
neurobiological questions. We will cover genomics, epigenetics,
functional genomics, biological pathways and models of biochemistry
and electrophysiology of single neurons.

21 September – 2 October 2015
Bordeaux, France
