Two people sit at a table in front of microphones, wearing headphones and smiling as they likely record a podcast or radio show. The plain white wall offers a neutral backdrop, perhaps suggesting they’re broadcasting from Hochschule Coburg’s dedicated media space.

Artificial intelligence in bioanalytics and bioinformatics: this is now also normal at Coburg University of Applied Sciences. With new specializations and closer interdisciplinary collaboration, students and researchers have even more modern opportunities to work and learn.
In our Zeitgeist podcast “Do you know what?” , Prof. Dr. Matthias Noll and Prof. Dr. Stefan Simm from the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Health explain what is changing and how this affects the region.
The new specializations in human biology or environmental data science provide students with the tools to find solutions to current challenges, whether in the food industry, the healthcare sector or in data science. This is because bioanalytics basically examines data and finds correlations – which is likely to become even easier in the future with the help of artificial intelligence. The speed with which AI can sift through extracted data and identify inconsistencies or regularities is immense and could help, for example, to identify disease types more quickly and better adapt therapies.
Modern knowledge needs modern teaching, so it’s no wonder that students from various faculties can now also continue their education in the field of AI. To this end, the collaboration with the new AI Center for Responsible Artificial Intelligence will also enrich bioanalytics. This also opens up more options for research work for doctoral students at the Analytics4Health doctoral center. You can listen to our podcast on YouTube and Spotify to find out how and what exactly is being researched and how it affects our region.
