Programs - Bioinformatics

The bioinformatics program carries out fundamental research in computational modeling of molecular processes, develops computer modeling tools, and fosters community-wide activities and providing training in bioinformatics and computational biology.

Students can also participate in the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Ph.D. Program.
