BS in Data Science Molecular Biology

The molecular biology emphasis focuses on bioinformatics, the crossroads between lab science and analytics Today, scientists use a variety of approaches for characterizing cells and their interactions with each other and their environments These approaches include genomics, the sequencing of whole genomes to determining the potential of a specific gene transcriptomics, analyzing when and why genes are turned on or off at a given time metabolmics, determining which metabolites are present or absent in a cell and proteomics, determining which proteins are present or absent in a cell Faculty focus on teaching how data are collected, analyzed and interpreted
