The OMICS Club of Pittsburgh

The Omics Club of Pittsburgh Is a biweekly meeting where experimental, translational, and computational biologists meet, discuss preliminary research projects and grants, exchange ideas, and form collaborations. The club is dedicated to informal discussion of ongoing and developing research in the "Omics" disciplines:

• Genomics
• High throughput genetics
• Proteomics
• Computational Biology and Bioinformatics
• Metabolomics
• Systems Biology and modeling

Although other disciplines may be invited to present, the main focus of the meeting is on research relevant to lung disease. In order to encourage discussion, every meeting is dedicated to a subject, some meetings are completely informal and some our research in progress. Speakers are encouraged to bring open-ended and in-progress subjects, and PIs are encouraged to delegate at least part of the talk to post-docs and junior investigators. The club is open to University of Pittsburgh and CMU faculty, staff, and students.

Light refreshments are served. 

A special meeting Tuesday December 19 2-5PM in the PACCM Conference Room at NW 628 MUH will be dedicated to the recent Nature Biotechnology. To see the program click here.
