"I enjoy my Functional Genomics and Proteomics, as well as Computational Methods courses. The former teaches me about techniques that are used in the field of Genomic Medicine and their application. Whereas the second introduces me to the field of Bioinformatics that is used to decode the massive data that the newly advanced machinery generates."
"The program has challenged me to think critically and independently as a scientist. I鈥檝e become more confident in designing experiments, executing them, and clearly communicating my findings鈥攅ven to non-specialist audiences. "
