Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Seminar Series

The Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Seminar Series is meeting on Wednesdays from 5-6pm in Halligan 106. It is organized by Lenore Cowen (Tufts), Donna Slonim (Tufts) and Barbara Bryant (Millenium Pharmaceuticals and ISCB) and sponsored by the Dean of the Engineering School at Tufts University. All talks are open both to the extended Tufts community and to members of the general public-- all are welcome. Schedule is below.

Here are Directions to Halligan Hall. After 4pm you can just park (for free) in the lot across the street if you are coming for our seminar (it's staff parking only during the day).
