Computational Genomics

Computational genomics is an interdisciplinary field that utilises computational and statistical methods to analyse and interpret genomic and other omic data, particularly those generated from high-throughput technologies like genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and epigenomics. It involves developing and applying algorithms and software tools to extract meaningful insights from omics data. The Computational Genomics research domain plays a crucial role in understanding the structure and function of genomes, identifying and predicting the effects of genetic variations on traits and diseases, and informing personalised medicine approaches.
