Are you fascinated by the intricate relationship between genomics and infectious diseases? Are you eager to dive into the world of cutting-edge research and gain hands-on experience with real-world genomics data? Join our immersive three-month program on Genomics of Infectious Diseases!

​

In recent years, emerging and infectious diseases have posed a significant threat to global health, and traditional approaches to drug development are not enough to address these challenges. This program offers a unique opportunity to explore the exciting field of genomics and its applications in understanding and combating various infectious diseases. You'll embark on a journey of discovery, working with whole-genome sequencing (WGS) samples and uncovering valuable insights into the genetic makeup of various pathogens.

​

Throughout the program, you'll learn the essential techniques and tools used in genomics research, from data retrieval and preprocessing to genome annotation, variant calling and comparative genomics. With practical exercises and real-world case studies, you'll become proficient in analyzing WGS data, deciphering complex genomic information, and drawing meaningful conclusions.

​

 In addition to the hands-on data analysis, you'll have the unique opportunity to craft your own research project, focusing on a specific infectious disease or pathogen. From day one, you'll be immersed in the process of manuscript preparation, working on sections like the Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusions, and Abstract. With guidance from experienced mentors, you'll refine your scientific writing skills and gain insights into the publication process.

​

By the end of this program, you'll not only have acquired in-depth knowledge of genomics in the context of infectious diseases but also have the chance to see your research findings published in a reputable scientific journal. Your contribution to the field will be recognized and valued, paving the way for future collaborations and opportunities.

​

Join us on this transformative journey, where you'll unlock the potential of genomics to tackle the challenges of infectious diseases. Expand your skill set, engage in critical research, and make a lasting impact. Together, let's decode the genomic mysteries of infectious diseases and drive advancements in global health.
