For some time, advances in computer science and high performance computing have led to ground-breaking developments in systems biology model inference. However, only now has there been sufficient large-scale data available to parameterise these models and use them usefully. Similarly, machine learning approaches have recently started having a significant impact in our analysis of large omics datasets and extraction of useful biological knowledge.

Therefore this course, run in collaboration with the Wellcome Genome Campus Advanced Courses and Scientific Conferences Team, will provide timely advanced-level training in using large-scale multi-omics data and machine learning to infer biological models.
