We are a PhD training programme, linking together approximately 90 genomics data science group leaders based at five Irish institutions. Expertise within the group spans from statistical modeling and machine learning to the full range of application of genomics. Over the coming four years our research teams will be joined by 100 fully funded PhD students, recruited through this Centre.
