Join Our Program
Our courses are well suited for everyone working in Life Sciences. No prior knowledge of Bioinformatics is required, though a basic understanding of molecular biology and computers is helpful. We have limited seats and conduct a short interview before enrolment.
Post completion of the 6-month training program, we also offer paid internships to exceptional participants.
