How can a Web Developer get into Bioinformatics?
caffeine: If you're contacting people about this (and you should), try to do some reading beforehand.  In particular this bit:I've always wanted to work with new biological technologies, for example figuring out what genes do, or how proteins fold, or anything cool like that where I can increase the world's knowledge.What about Bioinformatics interests you?  More specifically: exactly what part of the world's knowledge would you like to increase and why?I think a good, detailed answer to that question (and decent coding skills) is the most useful thing for you right now.Maybe this is useful?http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Compute...And here are links to courses (and therefore course notes) at Stanford:http://www-helix.stanford.edu/people/altman/bioinformatics.h...
