International Workshop on Bayesian Networks and Applications in Post-genomics

Paris, September 27 – October 1, 2010

Organizers: G. Nuel and S. Wolfsheimer

The purpose of this workshop is to introduce the base notions of the Bayesian Networks theory as well as its practical applications to Post-Genomics problems. The workshop include both theoretical lectures and practical sessions which are project-orientated: small groups of participants will each focus on a given particular problem and solve it within the week, presenting their results the last day.

The four first days are only open to a small number of participants (20 max), while the last day will be open to anyone. The public aimed ranges from master students to postdoctoral researchers. Every participant should have basic programming skills and basic statistical skills.
However, our aim is to accept participant from very different backgrounds and to keep the lectures and projects accessible to non-experts.

Thanks to the financial support of many (CNRS INSMI, Paris Descartes University, GDR BiM, GDR Stats Santé). The participation to the workshop is free.
