Master of Science in Systems Medicine Information Session

Description: Join us for an information session about the Master of Science in Systems Medicine at Georgetown University Medical Center.
Systems medicine is an emerging biomedical field that relies on systems biology approaches and tools in solving biomedical problems.

In medicine, complex computational tools will become essential for deriving personalized assessments of disease risk and management including individualized diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment options. This change, involving the use and analysis of enormous quantities and variety of data, will require a new type of physician and a new type of biomedical scientist - one with a grasp of modern computational sciences, "-omic" technologies (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, transciptomics etc.), and a systems approach to medicine. The new tools that clinicians and biomedical scientists will use continue to arise from the intersection of research across a variety of disciplines and are difficult to capture in traditional curricula. As a leader in medical science and education, Georgetown University Medical Center is taking a leadership role in developing graduate and medical curricula and expanding research in this area.
