Our website is updated, if you're interested to hear more about what we do please give it a look: tarheels.live/compbiosci/ As always if you want to be involved get in touch!
CompBioSci club is planning summer events, if you're in the Triangle and want to join in, please reach out!
Thank you to @NystromSpencer and @HeySunKat for their excellent Career Perspectives Seminar! It was great hearing about their experiences moving from graduate school to industry, and learn from their experiences.
Thank you to @iprophage and Sara Selitsky for an excellent Career Perspectives seminar today! Some great discussions on leadership, industry, and how to make the most of your time during your grad career.
We had our first skills workshop/seminar today: Common Tools of Computational Science! An overview of common computational tools/techniques, we went through git, bash, docker, Conda, and workflow langs. PPT: bit.ly/35koBew Recording: vimeo.com/683524537
Thank you to @ranipowers and @lorin_crawford for an incredible discussion on their careers as computational scientists! It was a fantastic start to the semester of events and we're so excited to continue doing great things for computational students!
We are proud to announce that we are officially sponsored by @UNC_TIBBS! TIBBS is an excellent organization and we're looking forward to working with them moving forward.
We've been a little quiet, but we've got many new developments we're working on! Get ready for Spring semester event announcements after the Holidays, including industry and academic seminars, internship opportunities, and programming workshops!
This is great! Especially appreciate the addition of a Web dev section and a bunch of bash resources. Thanks for sharing!
