Episode 8 - Rossen Apostolov: Managing scientific collaboration, the biggest project of European biophysics, and seeding schools of thought
Manage episode 411519666 series 3555369
In the eight episode, Rossen Apostolov and I depart from the standard format to talk about the core concepts behind BioExcel, the European Center of Excellence for computational biology. We discuss their main objectives and challenges, from working with code to organizing schools and webinars, talk about the challenges of sustaining funding through maintaining excellence in research, and review ways to share the gained experience with the broader computational world to inspire similar ventures elsewhere. It is a partial attempt to answer questions raised in previous conversations by pointing to existing models for international collaboration across many subfields.
