The Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics (WTCHG), which hosts the programme, has world-leading groups in statistics, bioinformatics, genomic analysis, protein structure and functional biology; united by a common interest in understanding the molecular basis of disease, researchers are affiliated to diverse departments, with interests ranging from susceptibility to infection, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular disease, language development, mental illness, statistical genetics and statistical bioinformatics, and come from both clinical and pure science backgrounds; this combination of skills and interests, the ability to cross disciplines and to address old problems in new ways, has proved crucial to the scientific success of the WTCHG and provides a unique training opportunity; students educated within the culture of the WTCHG are encouraged to develop cross-disciplinary interests, and to develop into scientists able to take new and unexpected approaches to old problems using the latest and emerging technologies.
