Hi Anuvrat, It is always better to be qualified in your own country. Both the streams are good for a prospective and wealthy career and lifestyle respectively. Clinical research is becoming popular nowadays and also have a good exposure in hospitals, Clinical Research Organizations (CRO), research labs where you can work on different projects and can earn fat money. It is basically testing the safety & efficacy of innovated drug product on human beings before getting marketed. Biotech+Clinical research is a very good combination likewise Biotech + PGDMLT is also a superb combination. Clinical research gives you knowledge about what is ICH-GCP guidelines, GMP/GLP, invention of drug molecule, how to get approval for molecule & to conduct a trial, toxicity study, animal trials, documents required to conduct study, how to design trial like single/double blind/open labelled study, case-control/cohort study, phase I to phase IV trials which are firstly carried out on small number of patient, then to healthy volunteers, what are adverse reactions coming after giving test product, how to create a data, clinical data management, generating Case record forms for each participated individual and many more things. Bioinformatics mainly generates software tools to understand biological data. It is a combination of computer Science, maths, biology & engineering. Different databases are there like NCBI, Genebank, EMBL, DDBJ, UniProt, SWISSPROT, KEGG. With access to these databases (Nucleic acid & protein databases), you can match your test DNA sequence, find out % similarity, phylogenetic relationship, the 3D structure of drug/protein molecule, metabolic disorders, genetic diseases, mutations etc. You can catch up a job in research institute, pharma companies where they carry out drug designing, molecular docking etc. PG Diploma in Medical Lab Technology, Another good option is PG. You can put lovely professional University in your consideration to pursue your higher education in biotechnology either it is B.Tech or B.Sc. All the best for your future.
