Research skills

Ìý

SysMIC offers online training for the bioscience community from the PhD, through postdoc and PI level. The aim is to develop participants’ maths and computing skills and support effective interdisciplinary research and collaboration. These are increasingly important in research and have been highlighted as priority areas by the BBSRC and MRC. Modules cover introductory and advanced techniques in maths and computing for use in interdisciplinary bioresearch. Participants learn how to use MATLAB to model, simulate and analyse biological systems, and how to use R and Python to analyse data.
