About BIOMS

The Biotechnological & Integrative Opportunities in Microbiome Sciences (BIOMS) Training Program is an NIH-funded predoctoral training program organized through the One Health Microbiome Center and dedicated to training graduate students in the microbiome sciences and its biotechnological underpinnings. BIOMS is designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge needed to advance microbiome biotechnology, research, and education through a One Health lens. BIOMS will cultivate an understanding of fundamental concepts in microbiome sciences through requirements spanning coursework, monthly workshops, weekly seminars, and professional development experiences including a biotech internship, mentorship from industry scientists, and workshops focused on science communication.
