Hello Everyone! As a Master's student in Bioinformatics, now stepping into my third semester, I have realized just how much hands-on practice matters in this field. Whether you are new to bioinformatics or somewhere along the way like me, I want to share something that really boosted my learning this summer: the  NASA GeneLab On-Demand Course . It's a fantastic, self-paced program that introduces core bioinformatics tools using real-life space biology data. And yes it’s completely beginner-friendly. Why I Chose #GL4U? Even as a graduate student, it’s important to keep refreshing the fundamentals especially when dealing with Unix, R, and data analysis environments. What stood out to me about the #GL4U course is: 1. It breaks down big concepts into approachable lessons. 2. It uses actual NASA datasets, which makes the learning feel meaningful 3. And best of all, it now offers  GL4U Office Hours  every  Monday and Thursday  for extra help! 🧑‍🏫 If you're just gett...
