Description
Grid and cloud computing are now a fundamental element in all analyses and experiments in Life Sciences. In this 2 part workshop, a number of research case studies will focus on the practical applications that are underpinning their success and show how these are relevant for other areas of research within Life Sciences. A final discussion phase will aim to provide clear proposals for future EGI effort. Additionally, hands on demonstrations/training for accessing grid resources either selected from the case studies or from within the scope well known Life Sciences VOs will be provided to researchers, scientists and even software developers.
