Doctor of Philosophy in Bioinformatics

University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney)

The rapid development of high-throughput molecular technologies, data storage capacity, and sophisticated algorithms has produced substantial changes in research practices in the life sciences. Future success for life scientists will increasingly rely upon the ability to leverage the large-scale data. Bioinformatics has become a central enabling discipline in the life sciences to manage and analyse the wealth of data, and to generate new knowledge. This program trains the next generation of young researchers with multidisciplinary knowledge and capability to organise, visualise, analyse and interpret biological data. At the School of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences (www.babs.unsw.edu), research students will be trained by experienced bioinformaticians across different areas of life sciences and have exposure to the latest technologies to develop their skills.
