Training Events
We host 3 different kinds of events:
Topic Workshops - These events will focus on supporting researchers, postdocs, and students to learn about a specific topic in informatics.
Train the Trainer Events - These events will focus on faculty from HBCU/MSI/TC and provide support for teaching our material at their colleges.
Citizen Science Events - These events bring people from our local communities together to discuss how cancer informatics research is done and how to engage!
