What is bioinformatics?

Bioinformatics is data science applied to biology. This interdisciplinary field intersects biology, computer science, and statistics. A bioinformatician’s work happens primarily at the computer, and includes the management and analysis of big data. Due to the nature of the work, many bioinformaticians enjoy flexible work hours and have the option to work remotely.
