Opportunities for students
Publishing Research Papers
By the end of your degree, you may have a paper ready to be published or already published in a scholarly journal, usually based on the results of a thesis project. To do this, you will study academic writing, participate in a journal club, and write a research paper.
Participation in scientific conferences and schools
Starting from the first semester, you can participate in scientific conferences and schools, including international ones.
Internships
As part of your research work, you will complete a mandatory internship at ITMO scientific centers or at partner organizations. You can also choose your place of work as an internship if it is directly related to your studies.
The main area of research is human genetics and application of bioinformatics methods for analysis of whole genome sequencing data.
