Description:
In keeping with the H3ABioNet Consortium's mandate to build and develop bioinformatics capacity in Africa, the Infrastructure Working Group (ISWG) is organizing an H3ABioNet-Funded Technical-Training workshop for System Administrators of the various Nodes and H3Africa projects. This is a follow up to the initial systems administration workshop run in Pretoria, 2013 to enhance the capacity of newly hired personnel. The aim of the workshop is to train newly hired System Administrators and/or their representatives on systems administration of Unix type servers/infrastructure relevant for data management and storage for H3Africa affiliated projects and subsequent bioinformatics research.
