Why Bioinformatics?

With the medical and life sciences industries growing at a rapid pace, there is an increasing need for advanced computational techniques to handle this expansion of complex data and information.

As the global bioinformatics market is projected to reach USD 16.18 billion by 2021 from USD 6.21 billion in 2016, growing at a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 21.1% during the forecast period, the demand for Bioinformatics professionals has risen manifold.

Bioinformatics is an academic field that seeks to create and advance algorithms, computational and statistical techniques, and theory to solve formal and practical problems arising from the management and analysis of biological data.
