Introduction

In this specialisation, you’ll look at a cell as one big and complex system. You’ll study epigenetic mechanisms during development and disease from different angles. This includes studying DNA and RNA by next-generation sequencing (epigenomics) and analyzing proteins by mass spectrometry (proteomics). In addition, you‘ll be trained to design computational strategies that allow the integration of these multifaceted, high-throughput data sets into one system. You will learn how to work with state-of-the-art technology in combination with biological software tools to study complete networks in cells in an unbiased manner. Radboud University integrates various state-of-the-art technologies – such as quantitative mass spectrometry and next-generation DNA sequencing – with downstream bioinformatics analyses. This is unique in Europe. This programme allows you to work with researchers from the Radboud Institute for Molecular Life Sciences (RIMLS), one of the leading multidisciplinary research institutes within this field of study worldwide. We have close contacts with high-profile medically oriented groups on the Radboud campus and with international institutes (EMBL, Max-Planck, Marie Curie, Cambridge, US-based labs, etc). As a Master’s student, there is ample opportunity to perform an internship in one of these groups. Radboud University coordinates multiple large epigenetics projects, including projects on leukaemia, skin development, pluripotency, embryonic development, malaria, and organoids. Master’s students have the opportunity to participate in these projects.
