Advancing Computational Methods & Tools for Medical Breakthroughs
We lead data science research to accelerate basic and translational biomedical research.
The Vision of the Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics (DCMB) is to advance the understanding of biological mechanisms and to accelerate biomedical discovery and translational research. Learn more about DCMB Research.
DCMB supports biomedical science through the development of powerful computational and biomedical data science methods, including novel Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) approaches.
DCMB trains and mentors the next generation of innovators and leaders in this field, in an interdisciplinary research culture where everyone is valued.

In DCMB’ Bioinformatics Graduate Program (BGP), we train the next generation of innovators and leaders in this field. We offer well established PhD and MS training programs that are tailored to each trainees’ interests and goals. We constantly review our curriculum to offer courses in leading-edge knowledge and expertise.
Our students can benefit from two NIH T32 pre-doctoral training grants: The Biomedical Informatics and Data Science Training Program (BIDS-TP; NIGMS) and the Proteogenomics in Cancers Training Program (NCI).
The Bioinformatics Program has graduated over 140 PhD students and 233 Master’s students. These alumni are now leading researchers in organizations such as Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, the Mayo Clinic, Ambry Genetics, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Microsoft and Google. On the academic professional path, they are at Vanderbilt University, the National University of Singapore, John’s Hopkins University, and, of course, the University of Michigan.
The Center for Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics (CCMB) provides a foundation for developing new and innovative research directions by combining expertise across schools, departments, and areas of research.
The Center gathers over 130 faculty members from a variety of disciplines including bioinformatics, biomedical data science, and translational precision health informatics. These faculty are available to mentor our trainees to develop their career in research.
Resources and information for current learners and faculty.
The Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics (DCMB) has the vision, programs, facilities, faculty, and top-notch students to transform lives and push the boundaries of science. The U-M and Ann Arbor are unique and special, making DCMB the place to be!
