2022 Computational Biology/Bioinformatics/Systems Biology PhD Admissions

[fred2000]

Hello everyone!

(This is an updated post from the previous year. I simply copy/pasted it because I did not find anything on computational biology programs for Fall2022) For citing purposes: https://forum.thegradcafe.com/topic/125918-2021-computational-biologybioinformaticssystems-biology-phd-admissions/

I saw posts about computational biology/bioinformatics/systems biology programs for previous years but there is nothing posted for the 2022 cycle. I thought I'd be nice to get things started for this cycle - it was great read through previous posts for those interested in more computationally-inclined programs.

It'd be nice to hear about everyone's thoughts on where they are applying to and to hear about news/updates/tips anyone has as well as we progress with applications. All the best and stay safe.

Hi, we have several overlaps. Would you mind elaborating your background and which areas of research you interested in? I have a masters degree in BME and some bioinformatics research experience. But my undergraduate is irrelevant to bioinformatics. I indicated immunology related topic in my application.

[fred2000]

I am just worried because from the results page, It looks like Duke's biology departments have sent out interview invitations

[darklings]

Stop refreshing inbox & gradcafe results from now on ?

I heard that this week will likely be the week for some schools to send invites (the earlier ones). But I wasn't so sure.
