Education Committee

ISCB’s education committee, co-chaired by Michael Gribskov and Winston Hide, solicits member input on issues in education and bioinformatics. The committee’s immediate plans are to establish a clearinghouse of courses and curricula in bioinformatics and computational biology, with the aim that this information will be useful to institutions starting or considering training programs in bioinformatics. The committee also hopes to develop a repository of sharable materials for conventional and virtual courses. The committee welcomes the participation and input of members who share an interest in education. For more information, contact Michael Gribskov, gribskov@sdsc.edu.
