Entry requirements
The school is aimed at both Ph.D. students and researchers within life sciences who are already using basic R in their bioinformatics data analyses and who would like to start using R at a more advanced level. In order for you and other participants to benefit the most, you should consider yourself eligible if you are comfortable with reading and transforming data, installing and using third-party packages and plotting using standard R graphics.
We offer places for participants from all over the world, but there is a number of places reserved for participants from Sweden.
