EMBO Practical Course on Metabolomics Bioinformatics for Life Scientists 2017

EMBO Practical Course on Metabolomics Bioinformatics for Life Scientists

Venue: European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) - Training Room 2 - Wellcome Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge,  CB10 1SD, United Kingdom
Application opens: Monday August 08 2016
Application deadline: Friday November 11 2016
Participation: Open application with selection
Contact: Reza Salek
Registration fee: £350

Overview
This course will provide an overview of key issues that affect metabolomics studies, handling datasets and procedures for the analysis of metabolomics data using bioinformatics tools. It will be delivered using a mixture of lectures, computer-based practical sessions and interactive discussions. The course will provide a platform for discussion of the key questions and challenges in the field of metabolomics, from study design to metabolite identification.

Audience
This course is aimed at PhD students, post-docs and researchers with at least one year’s experience in the field of metabolomics who are seeking to improve their skills in metabolomics data analysis. Participants ideally must have working experience using R (including a basic understanding of the syntax and ability to manipulate objects).

This year course now closed. We had about 150 applicants. We will try to inform applicants as soon as possible but it is a hard work selecting only 30 :(

We need more courses. Hopefully, via http://www.emtrag.eu/

I see there is a new metabolomics course on November registered on the EBI website: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/training/events/2017/metabolomics

Could we have some kind of idea of the main areas taught during this course?

By the way, I will be one of the attendants to the EMBO Course. If someone wants to discuss the pre-course slides, or has questions about Hinxton Campus or Cambridge (I lived some months around there), I will be glad to contribute.
