Mission and Background:
This seminar series consists of a series of highly interactive seminars designed to provide deeper insight into the methodology of computational and mathematical topics in genomics, proteomics, and related areas. Seminars consist of tutorial lectures, journal review presentations or original work with a strong mathematical content. It is primarily conceived for graduate students, postdocs and early-stage independent researchers from Stanford and other institutions.

Each lecture is approximately 45 minutes with about 15 min time for discussion.
