Applied Bioinformatics International Hellenic University

Overview

The Applied Bioinformatics programme from International Hellenic University is designed to deliver cutting-edge post-graduate level theoretical and practical training in acquisition, handling, statistical analysis, and interpretation of big data in biology. 

Key features

The courses combine lectures with hands-on computer and laboratory exercises that address real-world biological problems. Instructors are accomplished academics and professionals that may supervise selected MSc theses.

The students will acquire advanced programming skills and modern biological and mathematical knowledge to develop personalized pipelines for the analysis of a wide range of biological data types that include molecular (e.g., genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, epigenomics), functional (e.g., gene ontologies, molecular pathways), evolutionary (e.g., population genomics, comparative genomics), biomedical (e.g., drug targets), ecological (e.g., metagenomics), and other data (e.g., data mining in biological databases, biotechnology applications).

Graduates will demonstrate a solid and broad foundation of diverse set of state-of-the-art skills in bioinformatics that is highly valued in the academic, public, and private sectors.
