Prof. Michael John, from February 06th to March 20th 2018
Every biomedical professional understands the importance of the dictum Publish or perish. In today’s world dominated by TV and the Internet, where the simple transmission of data is not enough, it might be more correct to say Communicate or perish. Communicating your discoveries and techniques to the rest of the scientific community could improve the lives of millions of people and, less nobly, give your career a boost and earn you endless research funds. However, it isn’t easy to communicate fluently and elegantly when the language you have to use is not your own.
The course aims to show how you can use English as a tool-of-the-trade in the same way that you might eventually use a stethoscope or a microscope. There will be numerous suggestions on how to prepare for and deliver an oral presentation at a congress to a peer audience and how to survive the dreaded question-time session. IT lab sessions will focus on effective slide creation.
The main part of the course will be dedicated to student group oral presentations, where the theoretical skills previously examined will be put into practice. During this phase, the rest of the class will be expected to participate actively by acting as an audience, therefore asking questions, and by carrying out overall peer review of the structure and delivery of the work.
Prof. Riccardo Fesce, Insubria University (dates TBD)
Most theoretical aspects will be touched by discussing the statistical problems and experimental data proposed by the students.

Corsi intracurriculari
IMMUNOLOGIA E ONCOLOGIA DI BASE E APPLICATE
Course Objectives
- This course aims at following small groups of PhD students for a year to provide them with essential but robust tools to address the most common questions asked by a quantitative analysis of of biological
- In particular, the students will analyze RNA-seq data, ChIP-seq and exome At the beginning of the course the intermediate and final educational goals will be defined and they will be evaluatedby appropriate written assessments.
Course Structure
- The course is structured in bi-weekly meetings with the bioinformaticians of CTGB in the period from January to October The experts will introduce a theme, illustrate the bioinformatics tools to be adopted, and assign analyzes to be carried out individually by the course participants in the following two weeks.
- At the next meeting, the performance of individual students will be evaluated, the difficulties will be analyzed, and a new theme will be It is important to note that the tutors will remain available during the two weeks of individual work, although students will be encouraged to self-‐”problem- solving” (either individually or as a group), before seeking the tutors’help.
- Participants will be trained to the use of bioinformatics platforms and interactive programming using
- Periodically, external experts will also be invited to introduce participants to the most popular platforms and bioinformatics tools including R Studio, Galaxy, G en Hub, Docker and advanced pathway Even in these cases, tutors will assign the tasks to be performed individually to the course participants.
- After completing the course, a final exam will take place to assess the achievement by students of the goals originally
Course Objectives
A 2-days PhD course on technology transfer from academia to industry and on how reiterative cycles thereof may profit both parties in the collective effort towards innovation.
The course will be organized in 1-hr lectures (45’ plus question time) from the different figures involved in the process, with the idea of having a variety of point-of-views (POVs) on the subject.
