Skills of a Bioinformatician :

 According to the scientist working at companies such as Celera Genomics and Eli Lilly, the following "core requirements" for bioinformaticians:



1. Fairly deep background in some aspect of molecular biology. 
It can be biochemistry, molecular biology, molecular biophysics, or even molecular modeling, but without a core of knowledge of molecular biology is like, "run into brick walls too often."



2. Understanding the central dogma of molecular biology, how and why DNA sequence is transcribed into RNA and translated into protein is vital.



3. Should have substantial experience with at least one or two major molecular biology software packages, either for sequence analysis or molecular modeling. 
The experience of learning one of these packages makes it much easier to learn to use other software quickly.



4. Should be comfortable working in a command-line computing environment. Working in Linux or UNIX will provide this experience.



5. Should have experience with programming in a computer language such as Java, Unix, C, C++, RDBMS such as Oracle and Sybase, CORBA, Perl or Python, CGI and web scripting.
