"The reason for this sudden feeding frenzy? Sales growth. Although analysts estimate that bioinformatics will grow into a $2 billion dollar industry in the next five years, most IT companies believe the payoffs will be much higher. An internal study commissioned by IBM, for instance, predicts that when the markets for high-performance computing, storage, and e-commerce combine with that of data management, the worldwide market for IT products and services in the life-sciences sector will swell to $43 billion by 2004. Looking at these kinds of numbers, "now is not the time to think small,'' says Caroline A. Kovac, vice-president of IBM's Global Life Sciences Business Unit."

Bioinformatics will be at the core of biology in the 21st century. In fields ranging from structural biology to genomics to biomedical imaging, ready access to data and analytical tools are fundamentally changing the way investigators in the life sciences conduct research and approach problems. Complex, computationally intensive biological problems are now being addressed and promise to significantly advance our understanding of biology and medicine. No biological discipline will be unaffected by these technological breakthroughs.
