Duke Translational Research Institute, the Office of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics and the Duke Office of Clinical Research will hold a "Meeting of the Minds" Speed Science event from 3-6 p.m. Jan. 23 in the Searle Center Lecture Hall.
This event is aimed at the many clinical and translational investigators at Duke who would like to incorporate "omic" methods into their research, but lack the quantitative expertise to properly analyze the data, as well as computational researchers who develop advanced analytic methods, but lack high quality datasets to which to apply them.
The event will be divided into three sessions:
- Hour 1: Each participating in vitro/vivo researcher will give several seven-minute interactive presentations of his/her research interests, scientific questions, biospecimens and data types to small groups of quantitative researchers.
- Hour 2: Each participating in silico researcher will give several seven-minute interactive presentations of his/her research, desired data types, and analytic expertise to small groups of clinical and translational researchers.
- Hour 3: Networking and posters over food and drink
