Today, the field of bioinformatics is drawing more and more young people from throughout the world. The career options in bioinformatics have considerably increased since information technology and molecular biology were integrated. Jobs are available in every field, including biotechnology, hospitals, pharmaceuticals, and the biomedical sciences. Bioinformatics is used to promote scientific research and development in a number of domains, including human health, the environment, agriculture, and biotechnology. Scope of Careers in Bioinformatics After the molecular biology and information technology industries merged, job opportunities have expanded significantly. In research institutions, hospitals, and industries, there are job opportunities in every area of biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and biomedical sciences. Characterizing proteins and their interactions (proteomics), comparing genetic data between and within species (genomics), designing drugs using 3-D structure modelling and computational chemistry (cheminformatics), using genomic analysis to find drug targets (pharmacogenomics), predicting the function of genes and proteins based on sequence and structural data, etc. are some of the tasks involved in the various career areas. A few specific occupations that fall within the category of bioinformatics are listed below
- Bio-analytics
- Computational chemist
- Clinical Pharmacologist
- Database design and maintenance
- Data Scientist
- Drug Discovery and design
- Forensic investigator
- Genomics
- Informatics developer
- Proteomics
- Pharmacogenomics
- Sequence assembly
- Sequence analyst etc.
