14-15 July 2021
Together with the ARTIC network, we organised the 2nd two-day workshop about COVID-19 data analysis.
“Theory” (live sessions) and “practice” (homework) were separate, so everyone was able to choose what to take or to do from this course at their own pace.
Should you need any information, please drop an email to Lisa.Marchioretto@quadram.ac.uk.
