Since the construction of the first library and up to now, the advances that have been made in different fields (history, science, society, politics, etc.) have gradually increased the amount of information available to any professional to continue with the development and improvement of their field. However, although decades ago this issue seemed impossible, the evolution of technology and the possibilities that have arisen around the growth of the Internet, have allowed the creation of digital databases that can be accessed by specialists from all over the world.  

In this way, and referring to the field of physiotherapy, if a new therapeutic technique is discovered in Spain that reduces pain in a certain area of the body through the use of innovative electrostimulation technology, any professional in the United States, China or South Africa will be able to keep up to date with the advances made in this field and apply them to their patients. For this reason, the management of the main biomedical databases has become a necessity for them.  

In order to provide them with an intensive and multidisciplinary update, TECH and its team of experts in bioinformatics and biomedical engineering have developed a complete Postgraduate certificate with which they will be able to learn in detail about the advances in this area. You will be able to delve into the characteristics of the main sources of DNA data, proteins, omics projects, genetic diseases, adverse drug reactions and much more! In addition, they will also delve into the recommendations for their use in each case.  

For this purpose, they will have 150 hours of diverse content, which goes beyond the pure theoretical syllabus, as it includes: detailed videos, research articles, complementary readings, dynamic summaries, etc. Everything that the graduates will need to delve in a personalized way in those aspects that they consider most relevant for their correct professional performance. It is, therefore, a unique opportunity to get up to date in a guaranteed way and through a 100% online educational experience.

In-depth knowledge of the main data sources and their latest developments will save you a lot of time searching"

This Postgraduate certificate in Biomedical Databases, the Foundations of Big Data contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

  • The development of case studies presented by experts in biomedical databases and biological research 
  • The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice 
  • Practical exercises where self-assessment can be used to improve learning
  • Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies  
  • Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments 
  • Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

You will work intensively on research data management plans, using the latest information from Big Data and the biomedical sector"

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from the sector who contribute their work experience to this educational program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.  

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive education programmed to learn in real situations.  

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year For this purpose, the students will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.

If you are looking for a program that allows you to keep up to date with the activity of your practice, this Postgraduate certificate is perfect for you"
