Abstract
Bioinformatics has evolved from providing basic solutions, such as sequence alignment, structure predictions, and phylogenetic analysis to an independent data-driven field. The unprecedented growth of genomic technologies and the enormous data have opened an avenue for bioinformaticians (Bioinformatics professionals) never been seen before in the history of mankind. The novel opportunity also requires creative solutions that need skills to deal with noisy, unstructured information to offer valuable biological insights. Currently, we are seeing only the tip of an iceberg and the future will revolve around big data sets in all forms of biological research. The emerging challenge is to unfold the hidden iceberg of data.
