Stat Methods for Post Genomic Data 2014, January, Paris

Dear all,

we have the pleasure to announce the 2014 edition of the Statistical
Methods for Post-Genomic Data workshop. This 10th edition will take
place in Paris, on the 23-24th of January, and will be organized by the
Laboratoire de Génomique des microorganismes, Université Paris 6. This
workshop aims at gathering statisticians, bioinformaticians and
biologists to discuss new statistical methodology for the analysis of
genomics data and further development of such methodology for
challenging, new types of genomics data.

Invited speakers of this edition are David T. Jones (Univ. College,
London), Frédéric Austerlitz (Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle,
Paris), Cécile Ané (Univ. of Wisconsin Madison), Arnak Dalalyan
(ENSAE/CREST) The themes of the invited sessions are Metabolomics,
Evolution, and Statistical genomics.

We welcome contributed talks (15 min.) and posters. Abstracts can be
directly submitted on the conference website before *december the 15th
2013*. Registration is free but required, and inscription deadline is
December 15 2013.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Paris,

The organizers, H. Richard, S. Huet, B. Laurent, S. Robin, F. Picard
