Forschungsseminar der Arbeitsgruppe Data Integration in the Life Sciences (DILiS). Auch offen für Seminarteilnahmen im Masterstudium, Online-Teilnahme möglich. Bitte entnehmen Sie Termine dem aktuellen Plan im Whiteboard!

We start at 14:00 s.t.. We meet in T9/SR137. This is the link for online participation https://fu-berlin.webex.com/fu-berlin/j.php?MTID=m5ba1c59d104b0b852cdbdd2834d485e8

Das Seminar bietet Raum für die Diskussion weiterführender und integrativer Datenanalysetechniken, insbesondere Vorträge und Diskussion von laufenden oder geplanten Forschungsprojekten, Neuigkeiten von Konferenzen, Besprechung aktueller Literatur und Diskussion möglicher zukünftiger Lehrformate und -inhalte, und Vorstellungen, sowie Abschlussvorträge zu Abschlussarbeiten oder Projektseminaren. Die Seminarsprache ist weitestgehend Englisch. Gern können interessierte Studierende teilnehmen und unverbindlich vorbeischauen oder ein selbst gewähltes Thema von Interesse für die Arbeitsgruppe vorstellen. Achtung: Einzelne Termine können ausfallen oder verschoben werden. Kontaktieren Sie mich gern für Fragen (katharina.baum@fu-berlin.de)!
