计算与系统生物学哲学博士

计算和系统生物学计划的目标是训练下一代科学家进行分子生物学的技术密集，定量，系统级方法。我们的目标是让研究生在操作最新的高端仪器时像他们一样，他们正在操纵理解其数据所需的数学形式主义。我们希望加入计算与系统生物学计划的学生将运用这些方法来解开控制细胞的复杂遗传回路。技术进步对分子生物学产生了重大影响。实验技术的进步意味着现在由个别研究人员常规地收集了大量的序列，表达和定位数据。另外，这些数据的TB级存储在各种公共和私有数据库中。同时，在分子生物学实验室中，访问大规模计算资源已变得越来越普遍。计算与系统生物
The goal of the Computational and Systems Biology Program is to train the next generation of scientists in technology intensive, quantitative, systems level approaches to molecular biology. We aim to graduate students who are as comfortable operating the latest high end instrumentation as they are manipulating the mathematical formalisms that are required to make sense of their data. It is our hope that the students who join the Computational and Systems Biology Program will apply these approaches to unraveling the complex genetic circuits that control the cell. Technological advances are having a major impact on molecular biology. Advances in experimental techniques mean that large amounts of sequence, expression, and localization data are now routinely gathered by individual investigators. In addition terabytes of these kinds of data are stored in various public and private databases. Concurrently, access to large scale computing resources has become more and more common in molecular biology laboratories. Students in the Computational and Systems Biology Program will learn to leverage these advances in both experimental and computational resources.
