| Description | We're a bunch of six PhD students who share a passion for using machine learning in biology and chemistry. Hailing from diverse backgrounds - ranging from molecular life sciences, economics, to informatics - we form the dynamic team of Prof. Dr. Thomas Lemmin's computational biology group at the University of Bern. In the spirit of community and curiosity, we decided to shake things up in 2024 and organize a symposium dedicated to Natural Language Processing (NLP) in the world of biology and chemistry. Guess what? We got the funding, and are now thrilled to announce our upcoming NLP event in Bern! 👥 Why should you join us? This symposium is not your run-of-the-mill event. It's a vibrant platform for young researchers like you to showcase your NLP knowledge and troubles, delve into the magic of machine learning in the context of biology and chemistry, and meet leading experts (from industry and academia), fellow researchers, and the next wave of talents. Whether you're a seasoned pro, a fresh-faced PhD/MSc student, or somewhere in between, we're all about building connections and having a blast! 🚀 Details you need: Date: 18th of March 2024
We look forward to seeing you there! Calvin, Chiara, Giulia, Inken, Jannik, Symela |
