A wide range of state-of-the-art techniques in the field of cancer genomics and data science for example modelling, data integration, machine learning and AI is required to analyse multi-layer large scale cancer datasets and derive meaningful interpretable results.<br/><br/>However there is a serious shortage of well-trained bioinformaticians, computational biologists and data analysts who have the relevant skillset and experience in real world biomedical and cancer data. This programme is designed to fill the gap between research and employment demands and student training, offering up-to-date modules focusing on “big-data” analyses and enabling these through use of high-performance computing, together with cutting edge research projects and practical training using real world cohort data.<br/><br/>You’ll be taught by academics who are actively engaged in developing bioinformatics and computational tools, and applying them in cancer and medical research areas such as genomics, proteomics, evolution, modelling and biomarker discovery. We have an extensive network of academic and industrial collaborators around the UK, who contribute to teaching, co-supervise research projects and provide employment opportunities.
