The Master's program in Bioinformatics combines the life sciences and computer science programs at the University of Potsdam. It is an interdisciplinary, research-oriented master's program with application-oriented approaches that conveys scientific insights into the functioning of living cells and organisms, the interactions between organisms, and their interactions with the inanimate environment.
The focus is on a systems biology perspective, with an exceptional dedication to integrating molecular biological data and modeling complex biological systems. Other key areas include the application of bioinformatics methods in breeding high-yield plants, as well as the identification of the mechanisms of action of small molecules and their pharmacological applications.
