==With Application to the Analysis of Sequence and Genotype Data==
===June 26-30, 2017<br />Max Delbrück Center (MDC) for Molecular Medicine<br />Berlin, Germany===
The eigth Annual Berlin Genetic Association Course will be held at the [http://www.mdc-berlin.de/ MDC] in Berlin from September 5June 26-930, 20162017. The goal of the course is to teach the course participants both theory and application of methods for population based association analysis, with a concentration on the analysis of exome and whole genome sequence and genotype data.
The cost of the 5 day course is 975 EUR for researchers from an academic institution, and 1,950 EUR for individuals from private (for profit) companies. This fee covers tuition, Monday evening wine and cheese party and course related expenses (handouts, etc.) but not room, board or meals. Inexpensive housing is available for course participants at the MDC and nearby hotels.
