Venue: AGH Department of Computer Science, building D17, room 1.19 (ground floor), 21 Kawiory St., Krakow |
We would like to invite you to a meeting that will bring you closer to the topics related to the latest developments in bioinformatics, data science, genetics, machine learning and artificial intelligence! We will bring together the interesting worlds of medicine and computer science - showing the most interesting results of cooperation between the two disciplines. Our aim is to exchange knowledge and experience in the application of bioinformatics, artificial intelligence and data analysis.
Special guests will be specialists from the Medical University of Leiden (Netherlands). Leiden University is the oldest university in the Netherlands. Leiden University Medical Center is a modern medical centre with a research, educational mission and patient care. It focuses on social topics such as oncology, regenerative medicine or population health, contributing to solving key challenges in healthcare - the ageing population or the increase in chronic diseases.
Speakers at the event will focus on modern methods in bioinformatics - including gene mutation analysis, single cell sequencing and the use of artificial intelligence in medicine. Representatives from the AGH Department of Computer Science will show interesting applications of IT in medicine - especially for IT students who want to develop in this direction.
In the second part of the event, we invite you to lectures on such topics as functional differentiation of proteins, identification of pathogens in blood samples or the use of deep learning in drug discovery processes.
The conference provides an excellent opportunity to meet scientists, professionals and students interested in bioinformatics, data science, machine learning, AI and the role of computer science in the development of modern medicine.
The event will be held in English.
