Wellcome Connecting Science

About

Wellcome Connecting Science is the only UK-based programme providing open postgraduate courses and conferences focused on biomedicine. We fund, develop and deliver advanced training courses and scientific conferences that span basic research, cutting-edge biomedicine and the application of genomics in healthcare.

与国际知名的科学家和医疗保健专业人员合作,我们在欣克斯顿的惠康基因组校园举办活动,距离历史悠久的剑桥市不远,到了世界著名的惠康信托基金会和EMBL-European Bioineformatics Institute;以及低收入和中等收入国家的海外。每年组织约60个活动,吸引来自100多个国家和卫生保健专业人员到惠康基因组校园的3500名科学家。

Our courses are aimed primarily at biomedical research scientists, clinicians and healthcare professionals. They focus on hands-on practical and interactive training in the latest biomedical laboratory techniques and data-analysis tools. The number of participants on each face-to-face course is kept low (typically 16-18 for laboratory courses and 20-30 for computational courses) to ensure that participants fully benefit from close supervision and interaction with the instructors (and each other).

Each year a number of overseas courses are run outside the UK with the aim of building capacity in biomedical research and clinical communities in Latin America, Africa and Asia. These provide training tailored to regional biomedical communities in low- and middle-income countries. All courses are subsidised and additional bursaries are available for many events. We aim to educate, inspire and transform careers.

我们的科学会议在生物医学研究的前沿促进了讨论和辩论,旨在弥合基础科学和转化科学之间的鸿沟。会议由Wellcome Genome校园会议中心主持,这是一个杰出的会议场所,是该校园分享世界一流科学承诺​​的关键部分。

该团队与他们的同事共同连接科学,以连接研究人员,卫生专业人员和更广泛的公众,创造机会和空间来探索基因组科学及其对人的影响
