The Computational Biomedicine PhD Training Program offered by NYU Grossman School of Medicine’s Vilcek Institute of Graduate Biomedical Sciences provides training in medical informatics and bioinformatics. We train doctoral candidates in the design and implementation of rigorous and high-impact methods for capturing, storing, and retrieving clinical- and population-level data for translational and clinical medicine.

We focus on the following areas:

• big data analytics
• bioinformatics
• clinical informatics
• genomics and multiomics
• machine learning and artificial intelligence
• medical imaging analysis
• natural language processing
• synthetic biology
• systems genetics

PhD candidates work with our renowned faculty and have access to many resources, including the following:

• a high-performance computing facility
• six informatics methods research laboratories
• high-throughput assay informatics services, which include next-generation sequencing and proteomics
