CGR Advanced Python for Biologists workshop (5th - 16th February 2024)
mgemm...@gmail.com
The Centre for Genomic Research (CGR) at the University of Liverpool (UoL) presents this synchronous online Python for Biologists course. The course is hosted by Martin Jones, founder of Python for Biologists (https://pythonforbiologists.com/aboutcontact.html).
Overview:
Python is a dynamic, readable language that is a popular platform for all types of bioinformatics work, from simple one-off scripts to large, complex software projects. This workshop is aimed at people who already have a basic knowledge of Python and are interested in using the language to tackle larger problems. In it, we will look in detail at the parts of the language which are particularly useful in scientific programming, and at the tools Python offers for making development faster and easier. The workshop will use examples and exercises drawn from various aspects of bioinformatics work. After completing the workshop, students should be in a position to (1) take advantage of the advanced language features in their own programs and (2) use appropriate tools when developing software programs. All course materials (including copies of presentations, practical exercises, data files, and example scripts prepared by the instructing team) will be provided electronically to participants.
Registration Fee: £500
Where: Online
When: 2-week morning course. 9:30-12:30 on 5th-9th February & 12th-16th February 2024.
