    Bioinformatics industry and Career Prospects

    Bioinformatics - The latest & hottest buzzword is the field of science in which biology, computer science and information technology merges into a single discipline. The ultimate goal of Bioinformatics is to enable the discovery of new biological insights as well as to create a global perspective from which unifying principles in biology can be discerned.

    In USA, Europe and now in India also, if you ask anyone about job prospects in the world of Bioinformatics, young professionals will give the same answer. The field is hot. Some of the biggest drug firms like SmithKline Beecham, Merck, Johnson & Johnson and Glaxo Wellcome etc. are hunting for Bioinformatics experts while smaller firms have difficulties to get the staffers they want. Same is true for the renowned IT companies.

    First there is clearly the shift from what was primarily a very successful global scientific research effort into exploitation. Within 10 years, all new drug designs are going to be genomics-related. Here is a $300 billion pharmaceutical industry, and a very fast-growing biotech industry to support it. You have a $300 billion industry spending $30-40 billion a year in R&D: huge efforts, no tools. There are very good sequencers around, good instruments; there isn't very much software to support it.

    So everybody is scrambling. There is an acute shortage for Bioinformatics and Molecular Modeling specialists. It is a golden opportunity for you to become Bioinformatics professional because the international salaries range from US$80,000/- to US$2,00,000/- per annum.

    Bioinformatics - Job Prospects

    Bioinformatics is the new global wave. Companies and Governments in the business of developing drugs, agriculture, chemicals, hybrid plants, plastics, petroleum derivatives, Information technology among others are developing Bioinformatics divisions and looking to it to provide new avenues and research output to help replace scarce natural resources.

    India, being a forerunner among the countries having the knowledge edge, is expected to play a leading role in the Bioinformatics revolution. Bioinformatics Institute of India aims at being the frontrunner and pioneer in the Indian Bioinformatics initiative.

    India has expert software professionals and qualified and experienced Biologists/ Biotechnologists but lacks a combination which is now known as Bioinformatics Professional.

    Prospective employers include Pharmaceutical companies in India/ abroad, R&D organization, Academic Institutions, Government Organizations, Software Companies & Product Marketing Companies. There are great opportunities to work as Scientists, Researchers, Software Developers, Database Developers, Consultants, Trainers and Academicians.
