DESCRIPTION:Dr Barbara Jobstmann accompagnée d'étudiants des faculté
 s informatique et communications et des Sciences de la vie\nThe EPFL Educ
 ation Outreach Department in collaboration with the School of Computer and
  Communications Science offer this Summer school from July 5 to 8\, 2021 f
 or high school students who passed their first year.\n\nDid you ever wonde
 r what laws govern nature and life? How natural selection influences popul
 ations? Whether gene mutations are useful?\n\nComputer simulations can ans
 wer these questions and even predict which genetic characteristics will be
  transmitted to future generations. Today\, this revolutionary tool is as 
 essential for scientist as are theory and experiments.\n\nDuring this Summ
 er school\, participants will learn the basics of JavaScript programming a
 nd implement key biological concepts in code to analyze their impact on li
 fe. The findings are presented in a visual form that is easy to interpret.
  All the participants will have the opportunity to code their own simulat
 ions and share the results with their friends.\n\nOnline registration befo
 re May 15\, 2021.
