BIOINFORMATICS

Big data is everywhere, and its influence and practical omnipresence across life sciences industries will just continue to grow. For life and computer scientists with expertise and an interest in bioinformatics and genomics the job outlook couldn’t be rosier. Big pharma, biotech, and genomics software companies are clamoring to hire professionals with experience in bioinformatics and the identification and analysis, of huge amounts of biological and health care information. With the rapid development of next generation sequencing to make sense of life science research and outcomes, spurred by innovative research in bioinformatics itself, students who are entranced by data can pursue more career options than ever before [1].
