[quote=Anonymous]Hello, 10:48. This is PP whose DH changed careers. He took classes in biostatistics and bioinformatics as a PhD student in another country (his PHD was unrelated to that) and as a post-doc at the NIH. Then he was hired as a bioinformatician by PIs for their labs at the NIH and also later at a biotech, building up skills and experience (hated the company, which cranked out poor quality work but made clients pay through the nose). Now back at NIH. Started by analysing microarray data and now is doing NGS - next generation sequencing, which he's really excited about! I think taking the classes at NIH were key. Good luck![/quote]
