Hi Joisher,

Please provide details of your interests and meanwhile check the Cold Spring Harbor Labs for training and workshops.

one of the links: http://meetings.cshl.edu/courseshome.aspx

If interested, you can apply directly to professors in various "EUROPEAN" universities.

I'll revert back with generalized details on Winter Schools across the globe soon.

Best wishes
