What do you learn?

You will learn statistics and programming for the interface between biosciences and bioinformatics. This includes evaluation methods such as sequence analysis, next generation sequencing (NGS), the visualization of structures, the use of molecular biology databases and the application of statistical methods with R / R Studio. You will round off your profile with elements of programming. This includes writing small analysis scripts using the Python programming language.

What do you achieve?

You will be able to develop solutions to scientific problems together with experts from the natural sciences, mathematics and computer science. With the knowledge you have acquired, you will have a great advantage both in a bioinformatic-biostatistical field of activity and in a laboratory job.

What funding opportunities are available?

CQ is AZAV-certified as a training provider and the “Bioinformatics and Biostatistics” training course is approved for employment promotion. Funding available with an education voucher.
