Bioinformatics Online Internship - Basics course
Bioinformatics Virtual Internship- For beginners
The next Batch starts 2nd August 2021
Bioinformatics is the advanced branch of Biotechnology that uses computational techniques to handle the vast and growing information generated in research activities. It is common knowledge that Bioinformatics is used to manage the data efficiently, analyze and interpret the results, but it is now also an indispensable tool in gene expression, protein structure studies, the drug discovery process, and much more.
Why do you need to master the Bioinformatics tools now? The future of Biotech and life science research depends on computational technology, and bioinformatics sets the foundation for this! By learning the basics of Bioinformatics tools, you can easily apply the knowledge and progress in your research career. Candidates with bioinformatics skills are frequently hired in biotechnology laboratories, hospitals, the pharmaceutical industries, and biomedical research.
Future scope of Bioinformatics: The present and future scope of Bioinformatics is increasing each day. It now has a major role to play in developing areas like- Genomics & proteomics, precision medicine, data analysis, etc. It has now proved its value in the Pharmaceutical processes and the future can only add more value to it.
To help candidates gain the necessary knowledge and exposure, Biotecnika launches Bioinformatics Virtual Internship. This Internship will help you understand the concepts and build a strong foundation.
Internship starts 2nd August 2021
