About the Lunch Talks

The Biomina Lunch Talks are an initiative of a number of young researchers in the biomina network and is sponsored by the Flemish Government.

We aim to stimulate the interaction between researchers from different disciplines who encounter bioinformatics and computational biology, and consequently we focus on a broad and multidisciplinary public. With this informal medium we would like to provide a platform where knowledge and experience can be presented and exchanged, across partners from both academia and industry.

In this manner we have had the pleasure to welcome speakers from various institutes in and outside Antwerp, such as VIB, UZA, KULeuven, Johnson & Johnson. Even international speakers, from Ethiopia, USA, South-Africa, ... have been presenting their expertise!

These sessions provide a great opportunity for young researchers to acquaint themselves with new ideas and methods in the field of bioinformatics and medical informatics!.
