Description

The incredible pace of development of single-cell sequencing technologies* has led to great demand for new methods and models to make sense of these data and predict new phenomena.

The NSF-Simons Center at UCI is excited to host a two day workshop on Algorithms and models for single-cell genomics. We are bringing together the next wave of single cell technologies with mathematical and computational expertise to address compelling biological questions. We are building a computational community within single-cell biology. We are passionate about inclusion and early-career-researcher involvement.

Participation: the deadline for abstract submissions has now passed, but a limited number of participatory places are still available: apply here. The workshop will feature poster sessions and talks presented under two themes: RESEARCH and SOFTWARE.
