MonBUG
Description
MonBUG (Montreal Bioinformatics Users Group) (http://www.monbug.ca) is an association of researchers, professionals and students in the greater Montreal area who have an interest in the field of bioinformatics. Through monthly meetings we present our work, ask questions, share ideas, tips and tricks. Meetings are held either at the Institut de Recherches Cliniques de Montréal (IRCM), and are free and open to all.
Hack challenges
Molecular biology is faced with an avalanche of data. Few researchers have the skill sets to handle the data, and there is a paucity of commercial software programs to handle the data. During the hackathon, you will be given one dataset on which to apply machine learning techniques. No prior knowledge of machine learning or molecular biology is required. The winners get bragging rights, a MonBUG (Montreal Bioinformatics User Group) t-shirt, and an opportunity to advance scientific knowledge. This year, exceptionally, our sponsor, Streamline Genomics (http://www.streamlinegenomics.com/) will also be providing a prize. A pass to Startupfest will be drawn on June 15th amongst the participants that have already registered for the Hackathon..
