Hoping to bring this topic back as the application season approaches!
I'm applying to both computer science and computational biology PhD programs. My interests are in genomics, algorithms, and bioinformatics software development. I'm generally interested in the following programs: Johns Hopkins CS, Stanford CS, University of Washington Genome Sciences (maybe CS), WashU/WUSTL CB, USC CB, Princeton QCB (maybe CS), UC Berkeley CB.
For perspective: I'm getting a 4-year BS + MS in Computational Biology at a private university well-known in CS and CB. Ugrad GPA 3.7, solid GRE, TA experience, 2 years comp bio research at my home institution plus conference poster, and a highly regarded biology summer REU.
What programs are you all looking at?
