Dear Sir or Madam,
The Bioinformatics Platform (BIP) is offering the Applied Computational Genomics Course (ACGC) to Bioinformatics/ Biology researchers and students as well as to doctors and residences. The ACGC runs full-days from July 14th to July 20th in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Featuring instruction from some of the best bioinformaticians across Canada on software applications such as BioMoby, Birch, Bluejay, Helpdesk, and more, we are confident that this course will be of benefit to you, your staff and colleagues, or any graduate students you may know. For additional information, please visit our website at http://www.gcbioinformatics.ca/training or contact Administrative Coordinator Susanne Cardwell at [email protected]. Also, if possible, we are asking your assistance to help advertise ACGC via your email, newsletters, or website. Please see the brief description of the ACGC below which I am hoping you will circulate (by posting) throughout your faculty, department, or place of work. If you would like to have a one-page poster or a four-page handout to distribute or to keep for your own purposes, please do not hesitate to email me at [email protected] or [email protected] with "ACGC" in the subject line. I would be more that happy to provide you with more information. Feel free to contact me at [email protected] (Subject: ACGC Course Information) with any questions, comments, or feedback. Thank you in advance for your assistance!
