LSI Doctoral Training Centres: University of Warwick

Life Sciences research in the UK is increasingly focused on the opportunities presented by the extensive genomic and post-genomic data now available. However, the abundance and complexity of these resources has already highlighted major deficiencies in the skills required to acquire and interpret these data. The aim of this DTC is to provide advanced training in (i) the mathematical and computational skills required for a detailed and quantitative understanding of core Life Sciences research areas and (ii) the instrumentation technologies that will be increasingly used to analyse macromolecules of central importance.
