The Genomic Analysis Training Program is open to any UCLA PhD student who is a US citizen or permanent resident and whose goal is to do research in genomic analysis or interpretation. This program seeks to insure that students interested in this research area obtain an adequate biological, computational and statistical foundation to succeed in this important new, interdisciplinary field.
This NIH-funded training program provides a stipend of approximately $25,000 plus support towards UCLA fees. (Note that this training program cannot subsidize out-of-state tuition fees.) This funding is often supplemented by the student's department or mentor.
