What is this all about?
Biomedical Informatics Center, NICED, Kolkata is organizing Two Consecutive Workshops Entitled:
1. “STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY and BIOINFORMATICS”
On 17th and 18th May 2010
2. “BIOLOGICAL SEQUENCE ANALYSIS” On 20th and 21st May 2010
Inaugural lecture will be given by Dr. Chhabinath Mandal, Emeritus Scientist, NIPER (IICB), Kolkata.
The aims of the workshops are
to provide participants with an insight and prelude of fundamental bioinformatics approaches to solve different biological problems.
Biological Sequence Analysis
Sequence analysis in bioinformatics implies to all noble changes made to a DNA or Protein sequence in order to find the required data by using bioinformatics techniques. This workshop includes an insight to open source tools and techniques used for the analysis purposes according to the user’s need.
Structural Biology and Bioinformatics
This workshop is intended to be an overall introduction of bioinformatics approaches and computational methodologies commonly used in structural biology and molecular design. The Discovery Studio software will be used to demonstrate during the hands on sessions.
This workshop is mainly intended for the people from MBBS, M.Pharma, M.Sc. (Life sciences), M.Tech. (Life sciences) or B.Tech. (Life sciences) and other scientific staffs who either work in genomics and proteomics or are interested in understanding how to incorporate such data into their research.
Participation is free but participants will be allowed to attend only one workshop. So they are requested to apply for any one of the workshops mentioned above. If any participants send application for both the workshops, one application will be chosen for consideration and the other will be rejected.
Interested applicants should send their application letter mentioning the benefit of attending this workshop, along with their complete biodata via email to Coordinator, Dr. Santasabuj Das, Email: bicniced@yahoo.in . The last date for receipt of applications is 7th May 2010 upto 2:00 pm IST. The selected candidates will be intimated by email on 10th May 2010. The selected candidates should bring a proof of identity (photo ID etc.) for the workshop.
While applying please mention the workshop name clearly in the subject area of the application for participation e-mail. (Only electronic mails will be considered so don’t send any hard copies).
