Bioinformatics Advanced Online Internship Program
The completion of the Human Genome Project opened up various opportunities and room for development in the Biotechnology field. To make the sequencing process faster and efficient, scientists across the globe started implementing the power of computers to study biological molecules. This was the beginning of an era when computers dominated biological research. The science which was then used to manage data has now turned out to be a separate field of expertise.
Bioinformatics is a multidisciplinary field that includes computational biology, mathematics, molecular biology, genetics, and statistics. The future of Biological research depends on computational techniques and tools. To keep up with the scope and demands, every biological scientist must master Bioinformatics.
The average salary of a Bioinformatician can go upto 2 Lakh INR per month. The opportunities in this field are highly rewarding, and the demand for talented scientists is always growing. A Bioinformatics professional can find career options as a Software Developer, Research Scientist, Bioinformatics Analyst, Bioinformatics Engineer, Computational Biologist, Pharmacogenomics, and academia.
Biotecnika’s Advanced Bioinformatics Internship: This is an advanced-level Internship program that will take you through Protein modeling, Computer-aided drug design, Molecular dynamics, and simulation, Molecular dynamics and simulation, Network and pathway analysis, Genomics, Machine learning, and Fundamentals of programming languages. The course consists of Live classes, demo sessions, and assignments.
