Description

The 100 days of Data.Trek challenge is a 100-day training course designed to introduce students and research professionals to data manipulation, computational analysis, and machine learning from real data sets in a fun and mutual-help context.

 

« Lors d’un symposium, j’ai littéralement eu un coup de foudre pour l’intelligence artificielle (IA) et ce qu’elle peut apporter à mon champ de recherche, la cancérologie. Après plusieurs formations, j’en suis venue à la conclusion que je devais apprendre à programmer si je voulais un jour maîtriser tous les concepts de l’IA. Tout en poursuivant un certificat en informatique appliquée à l’UdeM, j’ai décidé de relever le défi Ran.Données. C’est une expérience fantastique puisque je joins l’utile à l’agréable: j’apprends la science des données en utilisant des résultats de BioID générés dans notre laboratoire! Avec les formations pertinentes en ligne et la disponibilité d’expert.e.s tout au long des 100 jours, j’espère bien tirer le maximum de mon jeu de données! »
