This year's topic is STRUCTURAL BIOINFORMATICS IN THE ALPHAFOLD / DEEP LEARNING ERA The school is sponsored by the CNRS, Inria, IESC, GDR BiMMM, I2BC, and the IA-cluster ANITI. We would appreciate your forwarding it to PhD students, postdocs, or other colleagues who might be interested. Best regards, J. Andreani, on behalf of the organization and scientific committees https://algosb2024.sciencesconf.org/ --- ___________________________________________________________________________ WINTER SCHOOL, ALGORITHMS IN STRUCTURAL BIOINFORMATICS: STRUCTURAL BIOINFORMATICS IN THE ALPHAFOLD / DEEP LEARNING ERA https://algosb2024.sciencesconf.org/ November 17-22, 2024 Institute of Scientific Study of Cargèse, https://iesc.universita.corsica/ ___________________________________________________________________________ We are pleased to announce the 10th edition of the Algorithms in Structural Bioinformatics (AlgoSB) winter school. The aim of AlgoSB is to introduce advanced methods in Structural Bioinformatics in the largest sense, giving special attention to interdisciplinary approaches. This year's focus will be on structural bioinformatics in the AlphaFold / deep learning era. PROGRAM Each day's course consists of a lecture in the morning followed by a practical session on the participants' computers in the afternoon. The topics of the classes are the following (details at https://algosb2024.sciencesconf.org/page/customizable_program) I Deep learning for scientific applications Julien Mairal (Inria Grenoble, France) II AlphaFold: A Case Study in Deep Learning for Protein Structure Prediction Paulyna Magaña and Maxim Tsenkov (EMBL-EBI, UK) III Design of functional biomolecules using deep generative models Alisa Khramushin and Ilia Igashov (Correia lab, EPFL, Switzerland) IV Artificial Intelligence deciphers the code of life written in proteins Burkhard Rost and Tobias Senoner (TUM, Germany) V Deep Generative Models for Sampling at Equilibrium Marylou Gabrié (CMAP, École Polytechnique, France) VENUE The school will take place at Institut d'Études Scientifiques de Cargèse - Université de Corse (https://iesc.universita.corsica/), Corsica. AUDIENCE The AlgoSB school is targeted towards PhD students, postdocs, and junior researchers from public research institutions and industry, both in France and internationally. This school is limited to 35 participants. It is expected that all accepted participants will participate in the entire school. Each participant will be expected to provide a short presentation of their research interests at the start of the school. APPLICATION A one-page application (pdf format) should be sent by e-mail to algosb-coordinators at inria.fr with the subject "AlgoSB application". The application should provide a mini-vitae or a pointer to the full vitae, a brief presentation of the applicant's research interests, and a description of how the offered courses can benefit their work. Institute for Scientific Study of Cargese (IESC) Application deadline: July 14, 2024 Confirmation of participation: expected July 25, 2024 Registration website opening: expected in September 2024 Registrations fees (*): - 1500 euros regular rate (non-academic), - 900 euros for researchers and professors from Public Research Institutions and Universities, - 560 euros for PhD students. The registration fee includes housing at the IESC in a shared double room, gala dinner, lunches and coffee breaks. A limited number of single rooms may be available for a supplemental fee. (*) Registration fees may be reduced if more sponsors are identified.
