Bioinformatics jobs from home?

[moosecakes]

Hello all, I have thoroughly enjoyed reading through your site so far!
And please let me apologize if I am posting this in the wrong section.

I am extremely interested in pursuing an MS or Phd in bioinformatics, I just recently graduated with a bio major.
My question to you is, in short, are there any work from home or telecommute bioinformatics jobs, in general.
Is such a thing even possible?
I would be very grateful if someone could please point me in the right direction in regards to this topic.
Thanks!

It really on depends on the company you work for. I work from home a couple days a week but my job is 50% programming, 25% software testing and 25% data analysis. I think the more programming your job entails, the more likely you are to be allowed to work from home. I didn't set out looking for a telecommuting position but it ended up being a bonus.
