Though I'm paid well and I have a relatively comfortable life, my current work is meaningless. I have a master's in Computer Science from USA, and is currently working as a backend web developer in my home country in Asia. Some MOOCs I took for fun around biology seemed interesting. I'm thinking maybe I might enjoy bioinformatics. How does one get into bioinformatics? > There is a serious lack of people with computational background in the field, very hard to compete with the market in terms of compensation. So we are left with the rare cases where the motivation of the type of work beats that, or the few places (e.g. Broad in the US) that actually have special consideration in terms of salary for computational biologists. Does that mean they're paid well? Or they aren't? Sorry English isn't my first language.
