October HAB Research Seminar with Sarah Mackie!!

Great to be at @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social #SpatialBiology Day in Robens Suite atop #GuysTower Exciting to see critical mass of spatial tech, bioinformatics, biobanking, metallomics expertise and more @habkcl.bsky.social @10xgenomics.bsky.social

Cancer Research UK City of London Centre@cruk-cityoflondon.bsky.social · last yr.

Want to explore how spatial data can help answer complex biological questions? Join the @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social Spatial Biology Day, co-hosted by our faculty member Anita Grigoriadis. 1-5.30pm, 20 Oct, London. Students, researchers and clinicians welcome! www.eventbrite.com/e/kcl-spatia...

October HAB Research Seminar with Sarah Mackie!!

Welcomed our new cohort of 62 MSc Applied Bioinformatics students to the HAB today, and we could barely fit in the room! Amazing to see how fast the program we designed has grown in just two years. Excited for another great year ahead!

🧬 New HAB Course 🧬 Starting in October, we will begin the Part 2 in-person follow-up sessions for the online KHP courses, beginning with the Basic R with Data Carpentry course. Please make sure you complete Part 1, the online course, first before attending Part 2! Hope to see you there!
