Bootcamp 2019: An Integrative Approach to Understand Cell Function
This ten-day “Bootcamp” style course will cover fundamental concepts and practical approaches in understanding cellular functions. The focus is to develop a breadth of knowledge in quantitative techniques to allow bioscience researchers to pursue further depth in their respective research work.
Major topics include: gene editing, cellular structure and processes, statistics, bio-imaging, image analysis, modeling, and quantitative methods in biology. There will be extensive tutorials in using Matlab, complemented by a hands-on microscopy and wet-lab sessions. Students will work as part of a team to tackle problems and to develop a report on an open area of modern bioscience research.
The Bootcamp lectures are open to all interested graduate students and post-docs. For graduate students the lectures will be reinforced in thematic-based practicals, leading to 4-MC.
Dates: 1 August to 10 August 2019
Where: CREATE Theatrette, Level 2, 1 CREATE Way, CREATE Tower, NUS and 5A Engineering Drive 1, T-Lab Building, #05-01, Seminar Rooms 1-3, Singapore 117411
