Next week in Copenhagen

Got this by mail today:

Seminar Series on Human Population Genetics

As part of the PhD summer course in Human Population Genetics Analyses from the 3rd of August to the 7th of August 2009 at the University of Copenhagen, the Department of Biology will host a seminar series with distinguished Danish and international researchers in the field of Human Population Genetics.  The lectures are open to the public.

Monday the 3rd of August 2009
Montgomery Slatkin
Department of Integrative Biology, UC-Berkeley
Population genetics of the Neanderthal genome project

Tuesday the 4th of August 2009
TBA

Wednesday the 5th of August 2009

Open problems in association mapping

Thursday the 6th of August 2009

Friday the 7th of August 2009

All lectures will be held at 4:15 PM in room 1.2.03 at the Biocenter, Ole Maaloes Vej 5, 2200 Copenhagen N, except for the lecture Thursday, which will be held at 4:00 PM in Chr. Hansen Auditorium at CSS, University of Copenhagen, Øster Farimagsgade 5, building 34

If you are in Copenhagen next week, I will recommend you go to some of these. I bet they will be quite interesting.

I will certainly be there Wednesday, for obvious reasons, but I’ll probably go Monday as well.  I would prefer to be there all week, but it might be a bit later for finding a place to stay and such, unless I can find a place to crash…

    I won’t actually be at the course myself, but only at some of the seminars. It’s a three hours drive each way, so not all of them either :(

    ahh…i see. yeah, i guess driving three hours there and back would suck.
    ok then, well i look forward to your talk and will at least find you and say hello. just so you know who i am if i ever start pestering you with questions on some of your work…or if i stop all this lurking and actually start commenting more :)

    you’re upcoming papers look particularly delicious, by the way.
