It is official! Starting in winter term 2023/24 Alexis (Prof. Alexandros Stamatakis) will be simultaneously teaching his 3 ECTS Master's level Course on "Introduction to Bioinformatics for Computer Scientists" at the computer science departments of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany and the University of Crete.

Alexis will teach a couple of classes live at KIT and stream them to UoC and the other way around, it will be a bit like the Eurovision song contest (Crete, Karlsruhe, can you hear us?).

Further information about the lecture plan and setup including lecture slides and youtube recordings from previous semesters is available at the following URL.

Alexis forms/will form part of one PhD committee (consistig of three PIs) with Dr. Nikos Poulakakis at the department of Biology of the University of Crete for PhD candidate Jannis Volonakis.

May 2023: Summer school on computational molecular evolution at the Hellenic Center for Marine Research in Heraklion, Crete, Greece. Alexis served as the main organizer of this school but also taught two lectures and one practical in the framework of this school.

In May 2024, the school will be held on the Sanger-Wellcome campus at Hinxton, UK again supported by the Wellcome trust.
