19th International Summer School on BIO-X: Data Science and Engineering in Medicine and Biology

We would like to draw your attention to a unique, professional  opportunity. The 19th  International Summer School on BIO-X: Data Science and Engineering  in Medicine and  Biology, sponsored by the NSF, co-sponsored by the IEEE Brain Initiative, IEEE Life Sciences, IEEE EMBS  and the University of Houston, will be held on May 30-June 5 , 2022 in Chania, Crete, Greece. 

·         The IEEE, the University of Houston BME Department, the OAC and the Akay fellowships will be used for undergraduate and graduate students from EU, South and Central American, African and Asia/Pacific Institutions. 

·         The NSF funding will mainly be used to provide fellowships to cover the summer school expenses for undergraduate and graduate students from US and Canadian institutions.

 

The fellowships will be awarded based on the scientific credentials of the candidates, including their academic standing, the relevance of their research (only applies to graduate students), their career goals and the financial necessity.

 

The summer school is an excellent learning, teaching and brain-storming opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students, and we believe it is extremely important for students to personally meet with leaders in the field, while enjoying a pleasant location.
