Subject: Apply for the Connectivity Map Workshop [Image removed by sender. clue.io]<https://clue.io/> Dear Sean, The Connectivity Map and NIH LINCS program are excited to announce a workshop hosted at the Broad Institute in Cambridge, MA from December 4-6, 2018. This event will feature a suite of training modules aimed at users of L1000 and LINCS data. Topics include: Data access and resources - a deep dive into the upcoming release of 2,000,000 gene expression profiles generated by CMap-LINCS. LINCS CRISPR Data - first reports from the generation and analysis of CRISPR-based loss-of-function signatures. Integrative Connectivity Map - improving predictions of biological function through the integration of diverse readouts from gene expression, cell morphology, cell viability and phosphoproteomics. Connectivity Map Case Studies - examples of Connectivity Map L1000 applications in therapeutic discovery projects. As the workshops will be focused on the analysis of large-scale datasets and computational approaches, we recommend that participants be comfortable with programming. Researchers from academia and industry are invited to apply, and academic scientists will also be eligible for grants to waive the registration fee and partially cover travel expenses. We hope to accommodate as many researchers as possible, but due to limited seats, we ask that anyone who would like to attend complete the registration form.<https://clue.io/workshop2018> If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the workshop organizers at [email protected]. Looking forward to seeing you in December. Sincerely, Connectivity Map Team
