2009-03-06 Thread SBGrid Computing School

Hello,

The 2008 "Quo Vadis Structural Biology?" Symposium was well received  
with over 250 participants. We are happy to announce that we decided  
to repeat the event in 2009, with a revised format. First, we  
relocated to the Countway Library - a smaller, more affordable venue  
in the very center of the Harvard Medical School Campus. In addition  
the event has been renamed the SBGrid Computing School, which better  
reflects the nature of our annual summit.


The 2009 SBGrid Computing School will offer three (3) Nanocourses:

1.  Python Programming for Scientists
2.  OS X Programming Tools
3.  Data Visualization with Maya

Nanocourses will offer an intensive two-day training and will be  
concluded by a take-home assignment. Participants who successfully  
complete a nanocourse will receive a certificate. Please Note: You can  
only take one (1) of the three (3) nanocourses being offered  
(nanocourses will run concurrently).


In addition to the nanocourses we will also offer several lecture and  
workshop sessions:
