Challenges from tutors' perspectives
**
* *Call for contributions*
September 9, 2012, Basel, Switzerland (a Satellite event of the European
Conference on Computational Biology ECCB'12)
This workshop represents a platform where those involved in
bioinformatics training to life scientists can meet, confront and share
experiences, as well as discuss future directions and collaboration in
joint efforts. Topics will include:
- Current state of the art and challenges in bioinformatics training for
life scientists in the world.
- Specific challenges for those delivering bioinformatics training --
organizers and teachers - and how we can address these.
- Successful showcases of teaching bioinformatics to life science
researchers.
- Exchange views on the future of Bioinformatics Training, going global:
building and strengthening networks of trainers, possible
collaborations, international developments, and getting recognition for
training efforts.
*Abstract Submission*
Participants can submit their contributions on one of the following topics:
1. Successful showcases of face-to-face bioinformatics teaching to life
science researchers
2. Successful showcases of e-learning solutions for teaching
bioinformatics to life science researchers
The abstracts will be reviewed by the organisers and they will be
selected for oral presentation according to the relevance to the
sessions, innovation and country balance.
Instructions for the abstracts submission can be found in the workshop
