[cid:image012.jpg@01D86A21.E36E6EC0]Full Program available and registration deadline extended! Join us at the “Big Data in Life Science Education” congress at Breda! Thanks to the development of modern technology, the field of life sciences is evolving into a data-intensive world! Big data and Artificial Intelligence is immersing into every aspects of life sciences. To revolutionize our education together with the work fields, Avans School of Life Science and Technologies and the lectorate ATLS strive to innovate using novel life science techniques. Together with the work fields, we co-create the next generation research technicians by equipping them with cutting-edge skills in big data and techniques. At this seminar, experts and students will share their experiences and views on why it is important to invest in the ‘dry-lab’ skills. Henceforward, we will make use of this information to tailor-make future proof researchers together with the work fields.
