The Graduate Group established the Designated
Emphasis (DE) in Computational and Genomic Biology to provide specialized
multi-disciplinary training and research opportunities in the different
facets of computational biology and genomics. The DE is a specialization
offered by existing PhD programs, which we refer to as Associated
Programs. At UC Berkeley, acquiring a DE is like earning a “minor”
with a PhD degree.
How does a graduate
student acquire a Designated Emphasis (DE) in Computational and
Genomic Biology?

Sandrine Dudoit's research interests concern the development
of statistical methods to address problems in genetics and molecular biology.
Current projects include: the design and analysis of gene expression experiments
using DNA microarrays, the genetic mapping of complex human traits using single
nucleotide polymorphisms, and the identification of regulatory motifs (e.g., transcription
factor binding sites) in DNA sequences. Professor Dudoit is also interested in
the development of statistical software for genomic data analysis and is a core
member of the Bioconductor
Project, an open source software project for bioinformatics.
