Workshop Workbooks

Live

These workbooks were developed for workshops conducted at various institutions and conferences. Most resources are from the "Augmented Academia: AI in Life Sciences Teaching & Research" workshop series (2024 workshop) with an updated 2026 version coming soon. The inclusive teaching workbook was created for the RSB GenAI Symposium.
