BiGre Days: February, 20th, 2025 @ IMAG

Join us for the BiGre Days, a one-day conference bringing together the vibrant community of computational biology, biostatistics, bioinformatics, and biophysics in Grenoble. The event will feature two invited speakers, as well as a series of oral presentations and a poster session showcasing exciting research.

We aim to provide a platform for young local researchers to share their work and foster collaboration.

The event is free but registration is mandatory.
