Computational Biology Virtual Internship
Applications Invited for Biotecnika's latest virtual Internship in “Computational Biology” The future of Life sciences.
What is Computational Biology?
Computational Biology is a broad interdisciplinary field that involves the development and application of data-analytical and theoretical methods. It is the amalgamation of biology, chemistry, mathematics, statistics, biophysics, evolution, genetics, and computer science. By the application of all these fields, one can create theoretical methods, mathematical models, simulation techniques, etc.
Significance of Computational biology:
With the pace at which research and development are growing, the involvement of computational methods has become highly significant. Computational Biology has found applications in anatomy, biomodelling, ecology, evolutionary biology, genomics, and much more. It makes the understanding of biological concepts easier and testable. With a background in Computational Biology, one can fill the role of Research Scientist, Bioinformatics Scientist, Senior Research Associate, Information Research Scientist etc.
With the sole purpose to Introduce this advanced concept to all Bioscience Students & professionals, Biotecnika presents Virtual Internship in Fundamentals In Computational Biology Virtual Internship.
