    At the University of Manchester, UK, we have over 10 years experience in teaching a range of online courses in computational biology. These courses are at Masters level, and are designed to enable those with a background in the life sciences, computer science, mathematics or related disciplines to update their skills, while remaining in the workplace. The courses are also very suitable for home study, helping you to keep in touch with a research environment while taking a career break.

    The distance MSc in Digital Biology includes the following modules:
    • Bioinformatics for Systems Biology
    • Introduction to Health Informatics
    • Maths for metabolic modelling
    • Computational Systems Biology
    The individual courses can be studied by anyone wishing to apply computational methods in their research. Those wishing to progress to the MSc will complete a supported research project. The topics chosen for the research project can range from oncology bioinformatics to efforts to improve crops for semi-arid areas. These, and other, examples of current and completed research projects are listed here: http://octette.cs.man.ac.uk/bioinformatics/projects/index.html
