Cultivating Genomics and Data Science Leaders

Undergraduate scholars

Building Foundations in Genomics and Cloud Computing

Undergraduate students will learn about select topics in genomics, data science and cloud computing as would provide for undergraduate research experiences and add to their preparedness for career interests and possible graduate studies.

Undergraduate experiences within GRADS-4C include:

  • Learning how genomic data is stored within a variety of data files, formats and those common databases that can be accessed and processed
  • Hands-on experiences with accessing genomic data and implementing techniques in data analysis within a cloud-computing environment
  • Presentation and networking experiences that enhance awareness and access for how they may further pursue opportunities at the nexus of genomics, data science and cloud computing

Graduate Fellows

Advancing Interdisciplinary Research in Genomics and Data Science.

Graduate students will be supported in their interdisciplinary exploration of topics in genomics, data science and cloud computing. Support from GRADS-4C toward these emerging scholars includes:

  • Expanding the mentorship network for participating graduate students where they can “talk shop” and gain awareness on how foundational concepts in genomics, data science and cloud computing are enacted in research settings and for purposes of scholarly publication
  • Guidance with implementation stemming from the use of such tools as QIIME2 and R/Bioconductor toward descriptive and predictive modeling of complex data with techniques including heat maps, PERMANOVA, PCA, PCoA, and PLS
  • Presentation and networking experiences that enhance awareness and access for how they may further pursue opportunities at the nexus of genomics, data science and cloud computing.
