In this seminar international experts and junior speakers from the UiO:Life Science convergence environment PerCaThe will discuss innovative methods for personalized and precision cancer therapy. Topics covered in the seminar include drug sensitivity screening, machine learning and combined mathematical, statistical and imaging methods for cancer modeling and simulation of drug treatment.
Collaboration between Pharma industry and Academia. The aim of the conference is to show how real world evidence (RWE) is changing the landscape for drug development and clinical use and to present RWE Initiatives that put the Nordic region in the forefront.
Refreshments and mingling in Oslo City Hall for all participants of the conference. You need at ticket to attend the reception. All who have registered, will get their ticket on email by the end of week 6. The reception is fully booked, but you may sign up for the waiting list.
At the Oslo Life Science Conference 5-year anniversary we looked ahead into the new decade. What will life sciences bring us in 2020–2030? What is the role of artificial intelligence (AI)? What are the visions for academia, hospitals and industry in a rapidly changing world where we need sustainable solutions? How can Oslo and Norway strengthen its position as a leading life science hub in Europe?

We are pleased to announce that Dr. Adam Novak will be the guest speaker of our upcoming Sven Furberg Seminar in Bioinformatics and Statistical Genomics on the coming Friday, Sep 27, at 14:30 in Lille auditorium, Kristen Nygaards hus.
Dr. Adam Novak, senior software engineer in the UCSC Genomics Institute, will present his lecture "Graph-based genome representations".
Abstract:
Graph-based approaches to genomics problems can beat out traditional linear-reference-based tools, reducing reference allele bias and improving structural variant calling. For these reasons and others, graph genomics techniques are becoming more popular, and more graph-based tools are being developed. Here I present lessons on genome graph API design learned during the development of the vg variation graph toolkit. I show how techniques and libraries extracted from vg can be used to help developers quickly bootstrap new graph-based projects, forming an ecosystem of interoperable graph genomics tools.
