Course summary
Immerse yourself in bioinformatics and data analysis, guided by world-class researchers at the forefront of their fields. Biosciences are increasingly dominated by vast amounts of data, which can scale from molecular levels (genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, or metabolomic data) to ecological and environmental data collected from large populations or communities. The ability to manipulate, analyse, and interpret these data is pivotal to addressing the biological challenges of the 21st century. Our interdisciplinary MSc Data Science for Biology is designed to equip you with comprehensive knowledge and skills in data mining, bioinformatics, and statistics. Youll become proficient in the analysis of biological data, learning essential skills such as statistical analysis, data visualisation, and bioinformatics techniques. You'll master the tools required to analyse complex biological data, including Python and R. Youll also have exciting opportunities to collaborate with industry partners at the Norwich Research Park, such as the Earlham Institute, John Innes Centre, and Quadram Institute.
