As the genomics revolution opens up whole new areas of research, 
biologists have access to huge amounts of data from transcriptomics, 
proteomics and metabolomics.  At the same time medicine is involved in 
the largest and most ambitious IT project in the world � the capture and 
interpretation of electronic patient records.

At the heart of these developments are data and knowledge � and a demand 
for the skills and techniques that computational methods can bring these 
problem areas. Biology and healthcare now provide some of the fastest 
growing and most challenging areas in which biologists and computer 
scientists must work together to apply their skills.

Our courses in Digital Biology will help you to develop the core skills 
needed to work in these new areas. You may begin by taking individual 
units, and then decide whether to progress to complete a formal 
qualification by distance learning.

The courses beginning in February 2013 are :

�    Introduction to BioHealth Informatics
�    Mathematics for metabolic modelling
�    Introduction to software development in Java
�    Databases and Modelling
�    Object-oriented analysis and design with UML
