  2. Bioinformatics as a Career • Computational Biology (Computer Science) • Systems Biology (Mathematics) • Informatics (Computer Science)

  3. Bioinformatics for Everyone • Bioscience employers now expect that their employees can use a standard set of bioinformatic tools • Knowledge of word processing and spread sheets is considered an ordinary job skill now-a-days • The same goes for editing, matching and retrieving, and aligning sequence data in biology

  4. Bioinformatics Field Transforming • Job market for “Bioinformaticians” was down between 2002 and 2006… • Pharmaceutical and biotechnology expansion “paused.” • Too many programs… and they were designed by biologists… tools had been developed… • But…

  5. Job Prospects Looking Up Again… Bioinformatics

  6. Many Companies are Advertising Again

  7. Computational Biology
