Probabilistic Network Inference and Analysis in R and Python workshop

Join our workshop on Probabilistic Network Inference and Analysis in R and Python, which is a part of our workshops for Ukraine series! 

Here’s some more info: 

Title: Probabilistic Network Inference and Analysis in R and Python

Date: Thursday, October 3rd, 18:00 – 20:00 CEST (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone) 

Speaker: Guillermo de Anda Jáuregui is a Mexican researcher at the National Institute of Genomic Medicine. His work focuses on using complex systems and data science to address biomedical and public health questions. Guillermo is a member of the Researchers for Mexico program, the National Researcher System, and a collaborator at the Center for Complexity Sciences at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. With a strong interdisciplinary approach, his research bridges the gap between data science and complex biological phenomena.

Description: Complex systems with many interacting elements often exhibit non-trivial patterns of statistical dependencies. Modeling these systems as complex networks provides a powerful framework to characterize them at macro, meso, and microscale levels. In this workshop, we will explore the fundamentals of reconstructing such networks, analyze the significance of different structures, and apply these concepts to the use case of gene regulation. Participants will gain hands-on experience in understanding and comparing network structures and learn how these models can be used to uncover the dynamics of complex systems.

Minimal registration fee: 20 euro (or 20 USD or 800 UAH)

Please note that the registration confirmation will be sent to the registered participants around 1 day before the workshop.

How can I register?

• Go to https://bit.ly/3wvwMA6 or https://bit.ly/4aD5LMC  or  https://bit.ly/3PFxtNA and donate at least 20 euro. Feel free to donate more if you can, all proceeds go directly to support Ukraine.

• Save your donation receipt (after the donation is processed, there is an option to enter your email address on the website to which the donation receipt is sent)

• Fill in the registration form, attaching a screenshot of a donation receipt (please attach the screenshot of the donation receipt that was emailed to you rather than the page you see after donation).

If you are not personally interested in attending, you can also contribute by sponsoring a participation of a student, who will then be able to participate for free. If you choose to sponsor a student, all proceeds will also go directly to organisations working in Ukraine. You can either sponsor a particular student or you can leave it up to us so that we can allocate the sponsored place to students who have signed up for the waiting list.

How can I sponsor a student?

• Go to https://bit.ly/3wvwMA6 or https://bit.ly/4aD5LMC  or https://bit.ly/3PFxtNA and donate at least 20 euro (or 17 GBP or 20 USD or 800 UAH). Feel free to donate more if you can, all proceeds go to support Ukraine!

• Save your donation receipt (after the donation is processed, there is an option to enter your email address on the website to which the donation receipt is sent)

• Fill in the sponsorship form, attaching the screenshot of the donation receipt (please attach the screenshot of the donation receipt that was emailed to you rather than the page you see after the donation). You can indicate whether you want to sponsor a particular student or we can allocate this spot ourselves to the students from the waiting list. You can also indicate whether you prefer us to prioritize students from developing countries when assigning place(s) that you sponsored.

If you are a university student and cannot afford the registration fee, you can also sign up for the waiting list here. (Note that you are not guaranteed to participate by signing up for the waiting list).

You can also find more information about this workshop series,  a schedule of our future workshops as well as a list of our past workshops which you can get the recordings & materials here.

Looking forward to seeing you during the workshop!
