About BREW

Brew is a workshop for PhD students in bioinformatics. The seventh BREW is organized by the University of Bielefeld and will be held April 28-30 in Bielefeld, Germany.

BREW aims to give an introduction to scientific conferences, including submission, peer review and presentation of scientific papers. All participants must submit a paper and take part in reviewing papers from other participants in order to attend the workshop. After the review deadline, you have a chance to make alterations to your paper and deliver a final version. All participants will present their paper at the meeting in April.

BREW is held in an around-robin fashion each year at the participating PhD programs: Bergen (2007), Cambridge (2006), Berlin (2005), Helsinki (2004), Bielefeld (2003), and Hinxton (2002).
