Annotation

Systems biology is an innovative, interdisciplinary field of research that is constantly evolving. It aims to understand and model the dynamic processes occurring within a cell, organ or organism. The bilingual Master’s degree programme "Genome Based Systems Biology" pursues precisely this approach.
Thanks to the rapid advances in new high-throughput methods in biological and medical research, those interested in genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics can collect vast amounts of data. By analysing this data and linking the individual levels, the way is paved for theoretical approaches and computer-aided models that simulate biological processes.
