Biomedical Data Science Seminar Series

The Biomedical Data Science Seminar Series, previously known as the Penn Bioinformatics Forum, has a long history of bringing top speakers in bioinformatics from academia and industry. All GCB students are invited for a lunch meeting with the seminar speakers. GCB students and students also organize two seminars per year (i.e., they select speakers, send the invitations, organize the schedule and meet with speakers on an individual basis, while Penn faculty meet the speaker for lunch and dinner as a group). The seminar schedule is located here.
