Thank you for your interest in the Biological and Medical Informatics Graduate Program at UCSF. The Program focuses on theoretical, mathematical, and computational approaches to understanding biology at the molecular level; and on the use of information science and technology to advance medical knowledge, and to improve the quality of care and health system performance.

We invite you to contribute your skills as a graduate student in one of our faculty labs doing research in the sequence-structure-function paradigm, computational drug design, pharmacogenomics, functional genomics, computer supported evidence-based medicine, health economics, medical error reduction, imaging informatics and molecular diagnostics.

Our program moved into the newly constructed Genentech Hall at UCSF's new Mission Bay campus in January 2003. In addition to Genentech Hall, UCSF is building a campus community center, parking structures, a housing complex for students and staff, and more than eight acres of landscaping. By the time the campus is complete, it will have 2 million square feet of space in 20 new buildings.

The Biological and Medical Informatics Graduate Program at UCSF offers a unique opportunity for graduate training, and we look forward to receiving your application.
