Bioinformatics

Fordham University · Bronx, NY

A checklist is the list of requirements to complete this program and receive the award, as the college publishes it in its catalog. It is the same for everyone. It does not say what you have completed; that comes from applying your own record.

Description
Bioinformatics studies the sequence, structure, and function of genes and proteins in all living organisms, including the human species. The advent of high throughput next-generation sequencing (NGS) has accelerated the pace of genome-wide profiling of biological sequences from various assays (Chip-Seq, RNA-seq, DNA-seq, Hi-C, etc.), thereby enabling multiomics analysis to bring deeper insights into the genetics of millions of species on the planet. Therefore, we now have access to thousands of organisms’ genome sequences, including their annotations on the respective protein-coding sequences. Scientists all over the world are constantly working to understand gene expression and chromatin patterns across many cell types covering the full human genome. Due to this, bioinformatics has seen exponential growth in academic research and linear growth in the biomedical and bioinformatics industry, adding more than 10% additional jobs each year.
