最近对纯基础学术研究幻灭，有转行计算机的想法，但是还想做一个博后博一博，希望
能够转向应用，我的背景合适的貌似也只有发酵工程，如Jay Keasling, James Liao等
牛人做的就是这个。但感觉现在搞发酵的工作不好找，而跟高等生物沾边的如免疫工，
好像要多很多。那么有没有可能转去做高等生物的实验室做博后？
因为父母身体不好，回国工作也行，前提是能找到工作。
请对于生物技术/制药市场懂行的牛人给些指点！ |

发帖数: 144 | 2 你找一些喜欢的实验室，发信问老板，需要招人吗，现在越是牛的老板，喜欢跨学科的
学生，来丰富自己的实验室。
建议，先找起，直接发信问，把cover letter写的好些。
好运 |

chance to land a decent job. But don't know any postdoc working in their
labs with an evolution background. A lot of evolution people switch to
bioinformatics and genome scale analysis. There are plenty of job
opportunities for them. Many departments including mine are recruiting
genomics persons this year. |

发帖数: 4339 | 4 I have thought about bioinformatics but it seems to me that this field is
restricted to academia and does not have much relevance to industry.
Therefore, I figure the job market for Bioinformatics is not big and, with
its increasing hotness, it might saturate soon.
You sound like an insider of the field. Do you agree with me?
Thanks for you comments.

发帖数: 417 | 5 I agree with you. Most of my bioinformatics friends are faculties somewhere.
There are a few in industry and some are working as staff in academic
centers. The point is most of them land good jobs, or relatively good job
compared to other bio-related major.
If you want industrial relevance, then CS is a good fit for you. I am not
knowledgeable enough to know what bio-related stuff has a lot industrial
relevance. Maybe food science and real fermentation technology. But that is
generally not in Bio department.
Good luck.
Make the decision and don't look back. Stay away from small wet labs if you
can.
