[Magali Michaut]

** Registration deadline: August 1 **

Date of the meeting: 7 September 2014

Transitioning from Post-doc to (junior) PI is a major step in the scientific career ladder bringing new challenges to the scientist. Key among these challenges is moving from a single project-based responsibility to being responsible for the projects of students, technicians, and postdocs. On top of this, the researcher is expected to be a successful grant writer, a human resources manager, an engaging speaker, etc.
 
In this meeting we aim to bring together scientists who have recently started or wish to start their own research group. This meeting will serve as a platform for building a community of junior PIs within the broader field of Computational Biology. The meeting will consist of (scientific!) speed-dating, short presentations and round-table discussions.

Speakers:
Sampsa Hautaniemi, University of Helsinki
Lennart Martens, Ghent University, VIB
Oliver Kohlbacher, University of Tübingen
Sebastian Schultheiss, Computomics
Alice C. McHardy, University Duesseldorf (ECCB keynote)
Organizers:
Virginie Bernard, Curie Institute, Paris, France
Magali Michaut, Netherlands Cancer Institute, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Lennart Martens, Ghent University and VIB, Belgium
Theodore Alexandrov, University of Bremen, Germany; University of California San Diego, USA
