![[Hackathon] Machine Learning Approaches @ Halle aux Farines, salle 442C](https://u-paris.fr/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/brooke-cagle-uHVRvDr7pg-unsplash-300x169.jpg)
Come and take part in the Graduate School Translational Bioinformatics workshop on machine learning theory applied to problem solving in the medical and biological sciences.This workshop will include both theoretical and practical sessions with multiple examples.

The objective
The focus of the sessions will be on demonstrating the strength of these methods and the scope of application, but also on raising awareness of their limitations. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of managing best practices and using them under the appropriate conditions.
Target Audience
PhD students (or post-docs) and Master’s students interested in training in Machine Learning and/or Deep Learning, applied to biological or biomedical data. This workshop is also open to students in medicine, biology or other courses, with the requirement that they have a basic knowledge of a programming language such as R or Python.
