Meet Our Students in Applied Biomedical Data Sciences

At St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, our graduate programs attract both top students from undergraduate science programs and promising young clinicians. By the time our students graduate, they will have joined the ranks of scientific researchers and begin careers in academia, industry or government.

Training in the Applied Biomedical Data Sciences program spans many subdisciplines in data science, including advanced computing, biostatistics, computational biology, and machine learning.  The program gives students a robust  portfolio of skills to tackle the most complex and pressing data science problems arising in current biomedical research.
