As a bioinformatician, I reside in an interesting middle ground between developers and end users. My background training is in biology, not computer science.

But in recent years, biology has moved closer to computer science. Many types of biological data are too big to analyze by hand and must be processed using computers. The ever-decreasing cost of genome sequencing has introduced vast amounts of sequence data. All this data needs to be assembled, compared, searched, and annotated.
