Note: These talks are specially for women in bioinformatics. Male students cannot register!
Are you interested in a scientific career as a woman in bioinformatics? You have questions and worries regarding how to get there?
The online lecture series "Women in Bioinformatics" provides the answers. Successful female scientists present their research, their career path and answer your questions.
Registration is now open for the talk by Prof. Dr. Olga Kalinina on 22.03.22, 16:30-18:00. Prof. Dr. Kalinina is professor for Drug Bioinformatics at the Helmholtz Institute for Pharmaceutical Research Saarland (HIPS). She received a M.Sc. degree with distinction in mathematics from the Moscow State University in 2003 and a Ph.D. from the Engelhardt Institute for Molecular Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2007. She continued her research in bioinformatics as a postdoctoral fellow at the European Laboratory for Molecular Biology, for which she was awarded an EMBO Long Term Fellowship from the European Molecular Biology Organization, and later at the University of Heidelberg, working with Prof. Dr. Robert B. Russell (2007-2011). In 2012, she established her independent junior group at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics in the Department for Computational Biology and Applied Algorithmics lead by Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lengauer, where she was researching resistance mechanisms in human viruses until 2018.
Registration is also still possible for the next talk by Prof. Dr. Caroline Friedel on 15.02.22, 16:30-18:00. Prof. Friedel is professor for Bioinformatics at the Institute of Informatics at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. Her research focus is on development of analysis methods for large-scale sequencing data, integrated multi-omics data analysis and virus-host transcriptomics with a particular focus on DNA viruses.
Participation is free but registration is required for every talk. Details can be found at: https://www.bio.ifi.lmu.de/women-in-bioinformatics. Please note that the time of the lecture may vary.
