What? |
The ß-Lab Open House 2001 event:
Join us for celebrating the creation of the Bioinformatics,
Empirical and Theoretical Algorithmics Laboratory, see
our almost completed and now fully operational facilities
in CICSR 153, and take the chance to meet members of the lab
who will demonstrate and explain some of their lates
research in theoretical computer science, algorithm design
and analysis, and bioinformatics.
The event will start at 13:00 on April 19th with a brief introduction to the lab and research group, and an overview of the main research areas which are currently pursued by the members of the lab. After that, members of the lab will concurrently give short presentations and demonstrations on some of their research projects. Everyone will have a chance to wander freely between these informal presentations, ask questions, and discuss their interests. Snacks and beverages will be provided. |
