Abstract

Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for analyzing biological data in protein and nucleic acid structures. Currently, it is the most effective method to deal with the flood of information and further reduces risks, time, and cost due to the transition of wet lab work into dry lab work. India- a biotech growth catalyst, is among the top 12 destinations for biotech in the world yet holds only a 3% share of the global biotech industry. Thus, this paper deals with the future analysis of bioinformatics in India. It introduces bioinformatics and leads to an emphasis on its importance and the opportunities it opens. Furthermore, contemplates the present challenges and possible solutions that could be made to establish this field as a proliferating industry in the Indian and global market.
