Title: I've been doing web application development (and general programming) for almost 10 years now.  I've also done a lot database design, working with very large databases, and optimizing queries, etc.  But I have no biology experience.<p>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.<p>It seems to me that a good programmer would be useful for these types of jobs.  Does anyone have advice for how to enact this career shift?
