About

The IMPRS for Genome Science programme aims to combine state-of-the-art techniques in experimental sciences and computational life sciences. Over the last decade, the molecular life sciences have undergone a major development. Currently, the analysis of individual genes, RNAs, proteins, and metabolites is often complemented by an analysis of cellular systems in their entirety. However, this development also poses a major challenge, namely the challenge of closing the cycle of experiment, data analysis, and the generation of testable hypotheses. To tackle this challenge, a new generation of genome scientists will be trained. These scientists will be specialists in an experimental or a theoretical discipline but also understand enough of the other disciplines to speak a common language and engage in fruitful exchange and collaboration. The IMPRS for Genome Science will train researchers in functional genomics, quantitative proteomics, bioimaging, computational biology, and bioinformatics.
