Bioinformatics infrastructure and training summary

We undertook a poll of bioinformaticians, marketed through Twitter, in order to understand more about the current issues with bioinformatics practice and training. Methods: Through using a public Google Form we asked questions relating to frustrations, working practices, limitations of working practices. We also assessed whether the survey participant was UK based and what level of self-declared skill they had. Users had the opportunity to read the other responses to the survey, and edit or delete their answers. Results: This fileset presents the form, the responses (in Excel and CSV format) and the summary responses. The results may be of use for those wishing to understand more about the current issues facing bioinformaticians and bioinformatics training. The results are distributed under the CC-BY license. We are grateful to all participants who took the time to fill out this survey.
