The Computational Genomics workshop co-sponsored by the Cancer Center, Coordinated Sciences Laboratory, and Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology on Friday, March 2, 2018 was a great success. Over 70 participants from departments across campus attended to hear about successful applications of computational tools in current cancer research. Keynote speaker Benita Katzenellenbogen set the stage for the distinguished speakers, Jian Peng, Zeynep Madak-Erdogan, Rex Gaskins, Matthew Hudson, and the resource panel consisting of Patricia Jones, Dan Davison, Randy Butler, Mark Hart, and Steven Lumetta. Seven students presented their work via a poster session tying in the research they are conducting with computation.
