Bioinformatics: analysing DNA and genetics using data science

Primary supervisor

David Taniar

Are you interested in biomedical? You could combine your data science and computing expertise to analyse DNA and genetics.

Student cohort

Double Semester

Aim/outline

The project aims to analyse DNA and RNA sequences, amino acid sequences and protein structures. The analysis would interpret this biological data. The RNA sequences to be used in this project are related to the circadian rhythm, especially in those people with type 2 diabetes.

Required knowledge

  • You should have programming skills
  • You are familiar with various data analysis techniques
  • Familiarity with DNA/RNA would be beneficial
  • Familiarity with big data processing would be beneficial
