Variant Call Format (VCF) files provide a crucial way to record and share information about genetic variants across samples. NCBI joined forces with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to co-host the VCF Files for Popul #BioTech #science

i worked on this skin for the jcc’s codeathon, and as of yesterday, it and all of its templates are officially finished! i’m really excited to share this one, so expect to see it go up for sale sometime this week!

Hi Sky! I see that you do computer science? I'm going into college my first year this month. I want to do cs too, but I'm nervous as a girl. Is that normal? What is your degree called?

hey hey hey! first off, congrats on going into your first year of college! as someone who’s wrapping up her degree, i wish i could experience it for the first time again. cherish it!

the nervousness around comp sci is completely normal! there is a serious lack of females in the field and although there is a lot to overcome with that gap, there are a lot of opportunities as well. 

usually, schools will have some sort of group for womxn in stem. we do a lot of professional development work and research on the statistics behind said lack in stem to help us better understand how we can make changes in the field moving through our programs. having a support platform like that is seriously beneficial, especially in your first year. focus on general studies, but don’t hesitate to leak into the major and get your feet in the water with hackathons, codeathons, or robotics groups!

my specific degree will be a B.SE, a bachelor of science in software engineering, as well as certificates in programming foundations and java programming specifically. i don’t have any cool interests like game dev or network security, i just really love coding and java as a whole. my uni has a 4+1 masters program and i plan on taking advantage of that to hopefully broaden interests. in the end, a phd is the goal, but that’s all still... two or three years away, so not sweating!

if you need anything, please reach out to me! i can compile resources if you need and direct you to cool support groups on fb and other sites!

the road ahead may look intimidating for a stem student, but don’t let that fear swallow you! you are badass and you are more than capable!

Συμμετοχή του 4ου Γυμνασίου Τρικάλων «ΓΙΩΡΓΟΣ ΣΕΦΕΡΗΣ» στο CodeAthon

Το CodeAthon είναι μια εκπαιδευτική και ψυχαγωγική δράση μη διαγωνιστικού χαρακτήρα και απευθύνεται σε ομάδες 2-3 παιδιών, ηλικίας 8-16 ετών, με τη συνοδεία και καθοδήγηση ενός ενήλικα (εκπαιδευτικού, γονέα κ.ο.κ.). Σκοπός του CodeAthon είναι να παροτρύνει τους μαθητές να αποκτήσουν μία δημιουργική στάση απέναντι στον προγραμματισμό, αναπτύσσοντας παράλληλα τις προγραμματιστικές τους δεξιότητες και μ…

HT Codeathon: Educators and students vouch for coding force

One thing the Covid-19 pandemic has taught us is to accept technology like never before. An overnight transition to online mode has convinced us that the digital platform and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are the new norm.

With the proliferation of the AI in the 21st century, we are at the doorstep of realising the true power of computing.

One factor the Covid-19 pandemic has taught us is to just accept know-how like by no means earlier than. An in a single day transition to on-line mode has satisfied us that the digital platform and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are the brand new norm.

With the proliferation of the AI within the 21st century, we’re on the doorstep of realising the true energy of computing.
