Journal Club Computational Biology
In this seminar we will present original work in Computational biology as well as progress reports from PhD students. Master students can participate and are assigend a paper to present. If they talk about their masters thesis, no credits are awarded. Please sign up for the seminar on the group web page.

Schedule
The schedule of the seminar will follow below.
Interested MSc students should (have) come to the first meeting. The seminar is still open for new participants.
English is the preferred language of presentation. There will be presentations about the current work in the research group as well as a thematic emphasis on recent algorithmic publications (e.g. RECOMB)
We expect each student to write a brief handout (about 2 pages) summarizing the key points his or her talk. This handout will be distributed to the audience.
Two useful guides on how to give a good seminar talk:

Next Generation Genetics in Alzheimer's Disease
(Three decades of intensive research have yielded four established Alzheimer's disease (AD) genes, and hundreds of potential susceptibility loci, none of which has been unequivocally shown to modify disease risk using conventional methodologies. The genetic effect sizes exerted by these loci are very small and more comprehensive experimental approaches are needed to identify novel AD genes, in particular those which contain rare, potentially disease-causing variants. To this end, our group has recently engaged in applying "next generation" technologies, which now allow an in-depth investigation of very large regions of the human genome in the search for both common and rare disease-modifying or disease-causing sequence variants.) |
