In this introductory workshop we covered the basic use of LaTeX.
We've also provided a template which follows the University of Luxembourg PhD thesis guidelines. Just edit the fields with your personal information and you're ready to generate your own thesis in LaTeX.
This template is available here.
We'd like to thank Shaman Narayanasamy for teaching this workshop!

The second session of our Machine Learning series is a hands-on workshop: "Introduction to R".

R is a great language for statistics, graphics and data analysis, widely used in biology.
Join us on the 13th December, 16:00, in room 4.540 (MSA), registration here.
Dr. Roland Krause (LCSB) will give a beginners' introduction to this programming language.

What is all the fuss about Machine Learning? And why should you care?
Dr. Francisco Azuaje will give an overview of the basic concepts of Machine Learning, the main current approaches and challenges, and will show why and how it can be applied to biological problems.

“Give a scientist a tool and you feed science for a day. Teach a scientist to be open and you feed science for a lifetime.”

Open Science is of major importance for the science community. But how can Open Science be actively promoted and which advantage does it bring to scientists?

Just in time for spring, we are back from our extended winter break - And no, we haven't been only sleeping!
