Applications are Open for IICD Intensive Workshop

March 01, 2024

The Irving Institute for Cancer Dynamics offers a 5-day intensive workshop (July 8th-12th, 2024, Morningside Heights campus) for Columbia graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to learn more about methods in data integration and optimal transport (at no cost for participants). Participants will learn about multi-modal single-cell integration, probabilistic modeling, emerging technologies in spatial integration, and the theory and implementation of optimal transport.

The one-week workshop will include morning lectures and hands-on problem sets in the afternoon, and each day will conclude with a guest lecturer. The summer school will end with short group presentations and a mixer. 

By the end of the workshop, participants will be familiar with the following concepts:

  • Multi-modal single-cell integration

  • Probabilistic modeling and representation learning for high-dimensional data

  • Emerging technologies in spatial and imaging integration

  • Theory and implementation of optimal transport

  • Applications of optimal transport for multi-modal single-cell integration and spatial data
     

Application deadline: March 29th, 2024 (5 PM EST)
