## Re-cap previous meetings
Note the [**MIRO board**](https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVPZVPbOU=/?share_link_id=7147612421) updated with a draft Data-driven life science rubric i.e capturing
* **Knowledge, Skills, Abilities**
* **levels of expertise** based on Bloom's level
* Performance level descriptors i.e description on behaviour within the topic and level

Goal would be to have a **DDLS rubric** where topics, level and descriptions are captured to be used to 1) **map courses** and 2) tag DDLS courses for a **national DDLS training collection**

## DDLS courses

### Data-driven life sciences
Course website: https://ddls.aicell.io/course/ddls-2024/
Organised by: Wei Ouyang
> **Looking for teachers and people interested in contributing!**
> See description [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ptv-EFv57VaWvw8-ISAshd4h3aMABLTn8lN9O0ewkYc/edit)

### Clemens course
Together with Valentina (GU) and Luisa (DDLS). Concept not set yet, will come back to us.

### Omics and datadriven precision health
Wen Zhong's course, proposal for 2025, LiU. Applications in precision medicine, aim to open on national level. Also lectures from industry. 4.5 hp.

### Issues raised
Can a course be both a DDLS course and a NDPIA course?
