The aim of the advanced bioinformatics workshops is to bring
you up to date with the different fields and latest developments in
Bioinformatics. Exciting topics in Bioinformatics are reviewed. The
advanced workshops (free of charge) discuss
important programs and their underlying algorithms and include practical training sessions.
