What: CIBB workshop on computational biostatistics When: 26-28 June, 2014 Where: Computing laboratory, 15 JJ Thomson Ave, Cambridge CB3 0FD Cost: PhD 180 pounds, Academic 280 pounds (early registration until 31 May!) Registration: http://www.cussb.unisr.it/cibb2014/pre.html#registration From 26 June until 28 June a excellent line-up of speakers will present their view on novel developments in the area of computational biostatistics. Invited speakers include: Chris Holmes, Vanessa Didelez, Jean-Michel Marin, Lorenz Wernisch, Stephen Burgess, Florian Markowetz, Carlo Berzuini, Jeanine Houwing-Duistermaat, Monica Chiogna. There are special sessions on Causality in Genomics and Spatial Problems in the Nucleus. A random draw from the programme: - Chiogna, "Graphical modelling for gene set analysis" - Holmes, "Computational decision theory and Bayesian methods in genomics" Causality in Genetics and Genomics - Markowetz, "Reconstructing evolving signalling networks by hidden Markov nested effects models" - Berzuini "Causal inference tools for exploring biological mechanism" - Burgess, "Using summarized data in Mendelian randomization" - Wernisch, "Inference of sparse structural equation models from static data" - Didelez, "Mendelian Randomisation for Causal Inference in Epidemiology" Looking forward to seeing you there!
