We would like to cordially invite you to attend the "NGS course Medical Genomics" which is scheduled for 17-20 September 2013 in UZ Leuven (Belgium).
This 4-day course is organized as a series of morning lectures and afternoon hands-on workshops. Outstanding scientists from Belgium and abroad - Johan den Dunnen (Leiden, NL), Richard Redon (Nantes, FR), Robert Kuhn (UCSC, CA, USA), Peter Robinson (Berlin, DE) and Joris Veltman (Nijmegen, NL) - will be presenting the morning lectures.
This course is open to all students and postdocs and registration for all academic participants is free of charge. To help us in organizing the course, please register online via http://gc.uzleuven.be where the preliminary program is also available.
This course is organized with support from the IAP “Belgian Medical Genomics Initiative”, SymBioSys and the Genomics Core.
For inquiries, please email Ms Narcisse Opdekamp (narcisse.opdekamp@uzleuven.be).
We look forward to meeting you in Leuven!
EDIT :
- Slides/presentations of the NGS course are available here.
Thanks a lot, Is the material of the lectures will be publicly free? like videos , tutorials and pdf etc...
This is not planned. We will request the speakers to share their material, but not require it.
Thanks that would be very fruitful.
I've edited the post to add a link to the NGS course material. Enjoy!
Thank you for for sharing the news. Although the course is free of charge but would like to know what are the expenses of accommodation and food. Please let me know asap.
Lunch and coffee breaks are included in the program and are free of charge for all attendees. However, accommodation and dinner will be at your charge and you have to book them on your own. Prices will thus depend on what you choose: the course is located at the University Hospital Gasthuisberg in Leuven (Belgium), so you can choose any accomodation you want.
