Bioinformatics is becoming increasingly important due to the interest of the
pharmaceutical industry in genome sequencing projects. There is a vital need to harness
this information for medical diagnostic and therapeutic uses, and there are opportunities
for other industrial applications. This field is evolving rapidly, which makes it
challenging for biotechnology professionals to keep up with recent advancements.
Biotechnology information system network (BTISnet) is unique and one of the
well recognized major scientific networks in the world, dedicated to providing the-state-
of-the-art infrastructure, technologies, education, manpower and tools in bioinformatics.
