Discovery Student Projects

Biomedical sciences produce large amounts of complex data at molecular, cellular, organ, organism, herd, and ecosystem levels. Bioinformatics helps us capture, store and retrieve, and analyse these data. A large and rapidly growing portion of biomedical research is performed using computers.

We have a number of places for students who are interested to pursue Honours, Masters, or a PhD in bioinformatics. The multidisciplinary aspect of the field helps us accommodate students from diverse background including biomedicine, engineering, agriculture, science, computer science, and mathematics. The projects are based at the Institute for Molecular Bioscience and School of Land and Food Sciences, University of Queensland but may also have international components.

Research topics for student projects include:
