NICE
National Inst of Cholera & Enteric Diseases (NICED) · Kolkata, West Bengal
Scientists develop and apply analytical methods and mathematical modeling techniques to the study of genomic systems. They use computational tools and approaches to organize, analyze and visualize data from genomic sciences and genomic medicine research.
Technology Development
Technologists innovate fundamentally new solutions, develop those innovations into useful tools, show those new tools work with exemplar work, disseminate their findings and approaches, and provide a path to commercialization and utilization in basic research and clinical settings.
Genomics Researcher
Genomic researchers study genes effect on physical traits and how multiple genes and their inter relationships influence the growth and development of an organism.
Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) Research
ELSI researchers investigate the ethical, legal, social or policy implications of genetics and genomics related to patient care and research. ELSI investigators have backgrounds in medicine, genetics, biological sciences, social sciences, ethics, philosophy, history, health services research, public policy or other related disciplines.
Genomic Medicine Clinician
Clinicians including nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, physicians, and physician assistants that apply genomic information about an individual as part of their clinical care (e.g. for diagnostic or therapeutic decision-making).
Clinical and Laboratory Geneticist
Doctors with either a Ph.D. or M.D. that specialize in providing comprehensive laboratory, diagnostic, management, and genetic counseling services for patients with, or at risk for, genetically influenced health problems.
Genetic counselor
Genetic counselors are professionals with education in genomics and counseling that specialize in helping patients and families make decisions about their genomic health and adapt to genomic risk.
