Biomedical Data Science Summer School and Conference on July 28-August 08, 2025 in Budapest, Hungary

Join us for the BIOMEDICAL DATA SCIENCE Summer School & Conference – two interconnected events where students receive intensive training in health data science (July 28 – August 5), followed by a scientific conference to share cutting-edge work in data-intensive biological and medical research (August 6 - 8).

SUMMER SCHOOL

How can networks help us identify critical relationships in biomedical systems? How can we uncover hidden connections between genes and predict disease pathways? How can visualizing medical data improve diagnostics and treatment outcomes? How can machine learning and deep learning models transform the analysis of complex medical data?

If you're eager to explore these questions, join us at the Biomedical Data Science Summer School! This program equips participants with the theoretical foundation and practical skills to apply network science, data visualization, and machine learning to real-world biomedical challenges.

The curriculum focuses on four key areas:

• Biomedical Network Science

Learn how networks can model relationships between genes, proteins, diseases, and patient data to uncover patterns and predict interactions.

• Medical Data Visualization

Explore practical methods for creating clear, interactive visualizations of complex medical datasets, improving interpretability and decision-making.

• Machine Learning on Tabular Medical Data

Apply machine learning techniques to structured datasets, such as electronic health records, to predict outcomes and identify risk factors.

• Deep Learning on Unstructured Medical Data

Gain hands-on experience with deep learning models to analyze unstructured data, including medical images, text, and genomic sequences.

GROUP PROJECTS

Participants will work in teams on data-driven projects, applying what they learn in the courses. Mentors will provide guidance, and teams will present their results to an expert jury at the end of the program. Dedicated time is set aside for project work and presentations, ensuring a practical and engaging learning experience.

CREDITS INFO

Participants who successfully complete the summer school will be awarded 4 ECTS. A certificate of completion will be provided by Semmelweis University, which can facilitate credit transfer to your home institution.

CONFERENCE
