Bioinformatics Seminar

The Bioinformatics Seminar Series is a joint event of all Bioinformatics/Computational Biology groups in Göttingen. Monthly, members of the different groups as well as invited speakers present their projects.

Unless announced otherwise, the seminar takes place monthly on the first Wednesday at 4:30pm . Due to the SARS-CoV-2 related lockdown measurents, the seminar takes place via video conference .

Coordination/Contact: Dr. Andreas Leha .
