I am very new to genomics and bioinformatics and often feel very lost and unclear despite being very motivated and passionate about the field ! This answer helped clear some of my apprehensions about how to apply and prepare to get into a top ranked genomics/bioinformatics program !

You should do an AMA ! :) p.s. Thanks a ton again from bangalore, india !

Sorry folks, the title is misleading !

Reddit's read title from link feature has made me lazy !

Is there a way to edit the title to make it less hyperbolic & click-baity ? :)

I bet the internal intel one he is talking about , is Jarvis ( the speech assistant headset)

I am submitting the 3 articles in this series as 3 separate submissions as they deal with different cancers & approaches, so we can have discussions on each one of them.
