The Basic Sciences Research Institute continues its efforts to produce a wide range of qualified information in various branches of basic science and interdisciplinary fields, to organize scientific activities at the international level and to provide Turkey with scientific competitiveness. In this context, an international winter school on "Particle Physics Data Analysis" will be held at the Institute between February 10-16, 2025. The aim of the school is to provide the necessary data analysis infrastructure related to particle physics to students who want to do graduate studies in high energy physics, who are working in this field, and who want to go to CERN and similar research centers. The lectures, which will be given by instructors from various universities in Turkey and abroad, will provide practical and theoretical information about scientific data analysis, detector electronics, event generators, event reconstructions, signal extraction, cross section measurements and programs used in data analysis.
