Apply TODAY!
Apply now to the 2025 Biomedical Data Science Innovation Lab (BDSIL)! The BDSIL is uniquely designed as an extended, hybrid program featuring online team-building activities and scientific presentations, culminating in a 5-day, in-person intensive workshop. Working under the direction of professional facilitators and the guidance of experienced mentors, teams at the event will develop interdisciplinary research projects to generate creative strategies focused on the use of data science approaches in spatial multi-omics, particularly as applied to understanding cancer and rare diseases. In addition, the lab will include opportunities for learning about NIH and NSF funding through interaction with program officers.
To be eligible, candidates must be at least 18 years of age and a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident at a U.S. institution. Applicants must be in the quantitative and data sciences or biomedical fields, with a focus on spatial multi-omics, data integration, quantitative methods, and mentorship, at the late-stage postdoctoral or early-stage junior faculty level. Competitively selected participants will take part in a series of regularly scheduled online activities beginning in May 2025, participate in a series of team building activities, engage with senior faculty mentors, enjoy presentations by leading researchers and data science experts, all of which will culminate in a 5-day mentored and facilitated project development workshop to be held in Nashville, TN, from June 16-20, 2025. Travel and lodging expenses are fully covered for all participants. For more information about the 2025 BDSIL, please visit http://innovation.lab.virginia.edu/.
