Current offer of R courses and bioinformatics workshops

R is the basic programming language in bioinformatics and statistics. Knowledge of R is associated with both prestige and the highest analytical competence. We use R in our daily work and are happy to share our experience and skills.

If you are interested in a given course, register and we will contact you to arrange a convenient date.

Our offer is tailored to all who want to expand their competence in the field of broadly understood data analysis, statistics and machine learning, as well as the scope of specialized analysis of metabolomic, proteomic and transcriptomic data. Our lecturers are R practitioners with impressive scientific and training achievements, working on a daily basis in big data and supercomputing. The courses include elements of statistical analysis and visualization used in scientific publications. We also organize specialist R training courses for universities, research and development units as well as individual courses. We are also the official partner of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, co-organizing the 13th edition of the Poznan Summer School of Bioinformatics. As a company, we also take part in scientific research culminating in publications. Our clients include over 40 universities and institutes, as well as laboratories and private companies.
