Tutorial Program

ISMB/ECCB 2004 will feature half-day introductory and advanced tutorials. The tutorials will be given on Saturday, 31 July 2004 prior to the ISMB/ECCB 2004 meeting. The purpose of the tutorial program is to provide participants with lectures and demos on either well-established, or new "cutting-edge" topics, relevant to the bioinformatics field. It offers participants to learn about new areas of bioinformatics research, to get an introduction to important established topics, or to develop higher skill levels in areas they are already knowledgeable. Each half-day tutorial session (morning or afternoon) is UK £55.00*, and registration to one morning and one afternoon tutorials is UK £95.00*. Tutorial attendees should register using the on-line ISMB/ECCB 2004 registration form.

Attendees will receive a Tutorial Entry Pass at the time they register on site. Tutorial handouts can be picked up at the door of each tutorial session.

Tutorials Schedule: Saturday, 31 July 2004.
