The project of Computational Open Lab Events has been designed after last year’s success of Open Lab Events and the feedback received. This will be the first TC collaboration project between Management Trainees and TechTalent members.

Have you ever wondered about the skills and techniques being used by computational teams at Sanger?

Want to try out some of these skills and techniques yourself in interactive sessions?

Considering a career move into the computational world?

Book onto a Computational Open Lab Event here !

With a variety of sessions catering for all levels of computational experience, the Technician Commitment presents interactive workshops including:

  • ToL Portal: interactive reporting hub
  • Develop and train a neural network
  • Running ToL bioinformatics pipelines and visualising results
  • Fuzzing as a software testing technique
