The spirit of the workshop is to bring together students from multiple fields to lower barriers for understanding the language and approaches in both biology and computer science/data science. Students will gain an understanding of the approaches, methods, and tools of another field of study, while having the opportunity to gain experience working in small interdisciplinary groups focused on cutting edge biology research.
