Hello Candidate

BIO INFORMATICIANS helps making the drug discovery stages easy which inturn helps the diseased people to get the right medication at the reasonable cost with less side effects

you can find a career in pharmacogenomics which is a combination of the science of drugs as well as the study of genes. It mainly studies the response of drugs applied to an individual while the genes are causing an impact. For instance, very recently, pharmacogenomics has been used in the case of HIV patients. The patient’s genetic variations are tested and kept under observation to check the impact of the genes on their drug response.

Both bioinformatics and pharmacogenomics are related to each other. They both help in reducing the cost borne by pharmaceutical companies through their studies and research outcomes. The bioinformatician provides the required software tools and database, which are used in pharmacogenomics to design and develop drugs and develop processes related to them. Hence, an expert in bioinformatics can further study and work on pharmacogenomics. There are degree courses on pharmacogenomics and drug development available in many colleges in India.

hope this helped you.

GOOD LUCK!!
