Conferences & Workshops

The aim of the OIST Winter Course "Evolution of Complex Systems" (OWECS) is to provide opportunities for young researchers with biological backgrounds to meet each other and learn the latest advances in the field of evolutionary developmental biology.

The OIST workshop “Advances in Live Single-Cell Thermal Imaging and Manipulation (ALSCTIM) 2014" aims to catalyze advances in the burgeoning field of live single-cell thermal imaging and manipulation.

This symposium will look at the genomic consequences of becoming a parasite, using social insects as a case study. Social parasitism, where one group social insects loses the ability to produce workers and infests colonies of other species, is widespread.

This workshop aims to familiarize participants with the analysis of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data and provide hands-on training on the latest analytical approaches.

The study of quantum coherent dynamics is currently one of the most active and exciting areas in physics.

The assembly of the functional nervous system is one of the most complex developmental process in nature.

A project-oriented course designed to teach computational neuroscience based on the STEPS, NEURON, Brian, NEST and Python software packages.

Young and Laplace laid down the theoretical foundations of interfacial science nearly two centuries ago, with fundamental experiments by early pioneers Pockels and Lord Rayleigh; later work by industrial physicists Langmuir and Blodgett established quantitative techni

The workshop brought together more than 90 scientists from a wide range of backgrounds with a common interest in new materials and novel states of quantum matter. Talks were organised in 5 broad themes :

SPDC2014 will focus on the conformational space attained by proteins in their cellular environment and quantitative and structural analyses of individual proteins.

The aim of the workshop is to bring together experts and students representing leading theoretical and experimental groups working on coherent dynamics in complex quantum mechanical systems in various physical settings and function as a platform for interest
