Problems of developing bioinformatics sector in india

Problems of developing bioinformatics sector in india

There are many Problems of  
developing bioinformatics  sector in india for bioinformatics professionals, science graduates in biology related field. 
Developing skills of bioinformatics are major problems in bioinformatics trainee, students, or students/working professionals with pure biology background. 


Problems of developing bioinformatics sector in India are:


- The major issue for India is its transition from a recognized global leader in software development to areas of real strength upon which it can capitalize in the biosciences. 

- The identifiable areas are in computation biology and bioinformatics, where a substantial level of development skills are required to develop custom applications to knot together and integrate disparate databases (usually from several global locations), simulations, molecular images, docking programs etc. 

- The industry people, meanwhile, say that the mushrooming of bioinformatic institutes is creating a problem of finding talented and trained individuals in this industry. 

- While many of them have a superficial knowledge and a certificate, India lacks true professionals in this area. 

- Most people, who opt for bioinformatics are from the life sciences areas that do not have exposure to the IT side of bioinformatics, which is very important. 

- Another issue is that some companies face shortage of funds and infrastructure. 

- The turn around time for an average biotech industry to break even would be around three to five years. 

- Most of the venture capitals and other sources of funding would not be very supportive, especially if the company is not part of a larger group venture.

- It would help if the government would take an active role in building infrastructure and funding small and medium entrepreneurs.
