The TELearning network is pleased to announce the first Franco-Latin American workshop on omics and bioinformatics. In this event, expert speakers will discuss topics related to databases and tools, transposable elements in aukaryotes and prokaryotes, evolution and current bioinformatics approaches. 

​

This virtual event will is free and will be held on 22-23 November 2021, you only need to register at the following:
