Over recent years, five European PhD programmes have organized a series of ‘Bioinformatics Research and Education Workshops’. These workshops address the needs of first-year PhD students and have been designed to combine a maximum of educational impact and scientific stimulation with a minimum of financial and administrative effort. We describe the BREW experience and argue that this type of event constitutes an attractive component of PhD education in computational biology and beyond.

Keywords: Bioinformatics Education, PhD student conference
