"Mention the term "outsourcing," and drug development probably doesn't leap to mind. But this market, which is the heart of pharmaceutical and biotech companies, is growing at a yearly clip of 15% to 20%. Right now the lion's share of the work has gone to U.S. companies that focus on drug research for giants like Pfizer. But now, India and China are angling to get a piece.

Last year, pharmaceutical companies worldwide spent nearly $2 billion doling out parts of the drug research process, mainly to U.S. specialists. By 2007, spending should reach $6 billion, according to a report by research firm Kalorama Information."

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.
