Develop new quantitative modeling methods and advanced computational approaches to advance understanding of biological systems and improve human health.
About the Program
It is widely anticipated that quantitative modeling, advanced computing and data science will transform the biomedical research enterprise and practice of medicine in the coming decades as fundamentally as biochemistry and molecular biology transformed it during the past century. With leading researchers from seven institutions, the Quantitative & Computational Biosciences Graduate Program brings together the resources of the Texas Medical Center -- the world's largest complex of biomedical research institutions and hospitals, Rice University and neighboring institutions -- to discover new biomedical knowledge and improve human health.
