Biological and Clinical Informatics

dna helix

Informatics is a broad and diverse field that includes working with “omics” data (transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics) or with large amounts of clinical data (electronic health records and digital health inputs). Offerings in this area are actively evolving at UCSF.
