Please note the McGill Seminar Series in Quantitative Life Sciences and Medicine has been cancelled for the Winter of 2020.
The Centre for Applied Mathematics in Bioscience and Medicine (CAMBAM), Quantitative Life Sciences PhD program (QLS), the Ludmer Center and the McGill Initiative in Computational Medicine (MiCM) are joining efforts to offer weekly interdisciplinary seminars.
Seminars will be held in the Montreal Neurological Institute, deGrandpre Communications Centre, from 12:00 to 1:00pm.
