A great summary of our summer school! Many thanks to all our faculty and fellow organizers for making it happen! We’re already looking for teachers for UBDS³ 2027 — reach out if you’d like to lead a short research project with some of the brightest Ukrainian students next summer!

In July we had the 3rd edition of the Ukrainian Biological Data Science Summer School. Now a regular, it has created a sense of community: young people eager to learn new topics, network across the country&world. Seeing how science is a positive&optimistic force. www.huber.embl.de/group/posts/...
