Course content
Biomedical informatics is an integrated, interdisciplinary science that has emerged and is rapidly evolving at the intersection of molecular biology, genetics, biophysics, biochemistry, systems biology and other biological disciplines, computer science, computer technology and healthcare. This discipline covers the resources, databases, algorithms and methods needed to optimize the acquisition, storage, transmission and use of information in the fields of biology and medicine, as well as to implement the results of biological research in medical practice. The field of application of biomedical informatics is multidisciplinary and covers a whole range of industries, from molecules to ecosystems and to the use of biological data and computer technology in the public health system. Students will gain professional skills in the search and analysis of biomedical information, the use of innovative programs, resources and computer technology to solve modern problems of biomedical research
