Bioinformatics, genomics, proteomics data analysis is the most worked upon field in this decade. This information is successfully being used in drug designing. An insight into the principles and technologies used in data analysis and their application to address biological problems related to medicine, cure and wellbeing of the human kind is very important for molecular biologists. Traditional ways of treating diseases will not stop a large number of deaths occurring across the globe due to communicable and non-communicable diseases. Bioinformatics focused on drug designing enables understanding of interaction of genes and proteins in animals, plants and microbes.
Career Options
Bioinformatics and genome analysis is now being applied to various fields such as medicines and vaccine development, agriculture, industrial biotechnology and environmental remediation. The skilled persons are indispensable for research as well as industry. This science integrates molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, developmental biology and medicinal research, therefore, entrepreneurship is also an important career taken up by student equipped with knowledge of molecular genetics, bioinformatics softwares and data analysis tools
