5-6th September, Imperial College London
We are organising a 2-day workshop that brings together experts combining single-cell analyses with modelling and inference to understand cellular trajectories.
Each participant will be given approximately 40 minutes for a chalk talk with 1-2 supporting data slides, to foster active discussions and blue-sky thinking. This will be an open discussion with integrated Q&A. The workshop and meals, including BBQ and conference dinner, are free for all speakers and are supported by a UKRI Future Leader Fellowship (to PT).
There are a limited number of places available to attend the workshop. If you would like to attend, please email j.pausch15@imperial.ac.uk to register. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
The venue is 58 Prince's Gate, Imperial College London, UK. See map.
Organisers: Alexis Barr, Johannes Pausch, Paul Piho, Philipp Thomas.
