Bioinformatics for Biologists
This one-year program is developed for senior students from Biology majors that are interested in Bioinformatics. The best students may stay for additional semester to take advanced courses and continue their research.
The program is focused on intensive training in programming, statistics and its application in R as well as building up practical skills in various aspects of Bioinformatics. During their studies students conduct 2-3 research projects under the supervision of specialists from partner laboratories and companies.
