Dear all,

there are the last seats available for our online course - INTRODUCTION
TO PYTHON PROGRAMMING FOR BIOLOGISTS


Dates: 24–27 February
Course Website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/...s/python24

This four-day course is tailored for biologists and life scientists at
all levels with little or no prior programming experience. Participants
will gain a strong foundation in Python programming and its applications
in biological data analysis, with a focus on hands-on exercises and
real-world projects.

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

- Write and run Python code for biological data analysis and visualization.
- Use bioinformatics libraries like BioPython.
- Perform statistical analysis with Python.
- Create organized and reusable code.
- Develop a simple project tailored to your research field.
