Pre-assignment: Doctoral students are expected to prepare for the minisymposium by reading the pre-distributed material suggested by the speakers. The material is distributed to registered participants about one week before the
course. The students are also encouraged to bring their own laptops for simulations etc.
-
Mornings: lectures, 2 sessions on both days (8 hours)
-
Afternoons: Discussions for guest speakers, doctoral students and senior investigators; specialty talks; computer demonstrations, simulations and other exercises.
Ř
Frank Eisenhaber specialty talk: Usage of the ANNOTATOR tool for reading biomolecular mechanisms in protein sequences
Ř
Kimmo Mattila: demonstrations on the following potential themes (depending on the demand): Pouta cloud service, FGI grid enivionmnet, (Array) batch jobs in Taito cluster, IDA storage environment, Chipster
data analysis environment for NGS, microchip and sequence data, Discovery Studio graphical protein modeling program; Ad-Hoc demos on request
