    ​The 6th Workshop on Biostatistics and Bioinformatics

    Event dates: May 4-6, 2018

    Biostatistics and Bioinformatics have been playing key and important roles in statistics and other scientific research fields  in recent years. The goal of this workshop is to stimulate research and to foster the interaction of researchers   in Biostatistics & Bioinformatics research areas. The workshop will provide the opportunity for faculty and  graduate students to  meet the top researchers, identify important directions for future research, facilitate research  collaboration.


    The keynote speaker of our workshop is   Dr. Hongyu Zhao, the Ira V. Hiscock Professor of Biostatistics and Professor of Statistics and Genetics at Yale  University and the recipient of the Mortimer Spiegelman Award.


    There will be invited talks by distinguished researchers, and a poster  session by young researchers and graduate students. For more information, please  visit the website: math.gsu.edu/yichuan/2018Workshop  for details.


    The registration is   open now. Please register and submit the abstract on the website. In order  to encourage graduate students and young researchers to conduct a cutting-edge research,  we are currently organizing a poster session.    The workshop will be providing partial travel awards to   selected conference participants. Priority will be given to senior graduate students,   post-graduate, recent Ph.D's, junior faculty, and under-represented groups.​​​​​​​​​
