Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV), together with Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), is offering the course “Introduction to Machine Learning with Python”. This course offers 30 seats to Aurora staff members and PhD students. Regarding selecting candidates, we will prioritize having representation from all Aurora Universities.

In 2020, Python was the most popular programming language, with more than 50% of hiring managers seeking candidates who know this language. There are plenty of reasons why Python is so popular: it is easy to learn and use, allowing programmers to easily develop various applications, from data science to web development, from machine learning to finance services. Literally, everything you want to do, you can do it in Python.

Both teachers are top researchers at Bioinformatics and Biomedical Signals Laboratory (B2Slab, http://b2slab.upc.edu, member of http://creb.upc.edu). B2Slab is a multidisciplinary research group coordinating the projects such as xartecsalut.com, the data science behind share4rare.org and the upcoming share4pandemics, and the founder of spin-off companies such as exheus.com and vincer.ai.
