You don't need a masters degree to work in Data Science | Genomics with Georgia

[@roadtombg]

Some notes: 1) START LEARNING TO CODE NOW! 2) apply for the jobs even if you don’t have all the requirements 3) the time is now :)

Can you make a video talking about internships for bioinformatics and the requirements etc x

[@genomicswithgeorgia]

Hi 👋 I made a video on how to find internships here - Wonderful internships & where to find them kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaO4l6CBhtdjqbc but thanks for the suggestion about requirements, I’ll add that on to the list! 🫶

[@marieballzzz]

Oh ok thank youuu also sorry for all the questions but do you need to be good at maths to do bioinformatics?

[@mrgroovybadger5016]

You can ask for feedback from interviewers to (sometimes) to find out how to build employability further. UEA also gives course reduction fees of 50% for first class graduates who start a master's within 6 months!

[@genomicswithgeorgia]

Yes you really can! Asking for feedback is soooo important. You’re right yes a lot of universities have schemed to encourage you to take a masters on if you’ve achieved highly. Sadly UEA don’t offer computational genetics masters :((((

[@roadtombg]

hi i’d love to see a day in my life video from you!

[@genomicswithgeorgia]

I’m so keen to do this but my new job is in the office every day! Perhaps I’ll do a video compilation where I voice over what I did :)

[@roadtombg]

Congrats on the new job! that sounds great too!! @@genomicswithgeorgia

Hi Georgia, great video! 😍👍🏻I was wondering is there a difference between genomic data science and bioinformatics??

[@genomicswithgeorgia]

Hey Tina! Thanks a lot! Yes there is a difference. There’s so many terms in this general computational genetics field (bioinformatics, computational biology, genomic data science etc) it’s super confusing! I’ll make it a priority to make a video of my undertaking of these terms asap!

[@tinaasgari610]

@@genomicswithgeorgia that would be really helpful! Looking forward to it😍
