Center for Computational Biology (Simons Foundation, NYU), and the Center for Microbiome Informatics and Therapeutics (at MIT) will hold their Third Workshop on Statistical and Algorithmic Challenges in Microbiome Data Analysis at The Simons Foundation, 160 Fifth Avenue, 2nd Floor, G.D.F. Auditorium, New York, New York 10010 on April 1 – 2, 2019.
As with previous years, the SACMDA workshop is a forum to advance research within the growing community of developers of computational and statistical methods from the microbiome field and related disciplines. Dissemination, exchange, and synthesis of ideas is encouraged by inviting by junior faculty members or postdoctoral associates to present the tools and algorithms that they conceived and developed. Plenty of time will be allocated for discussion so that peers and senior faculty can provide constructive feedback and initiate collaboration.
Susan Holmes has been selected as our Keynote to inspire the group to rise to new challenges.
