I had really wanted to get a PhD in Bioinformatics Engineering. I find it absolutely fascinating because it's a combination of everything I love - math, biology, and programming. The only thing I'm concerned about is the pay.
At first, I had been told it pays great money - high salary, a field that keeps expanding and rising in value. As I do more research, I'm getting mixed answers. Some say it's excellent, others say the pay doesn't even come close to being worth all the hard work that goes into it. I really want to be in a high paying field. Are there any jobs similar with a higher average salary?
P/S: I had wanted to go into medical bioinformatics engineering, but wasn't limiting my options to it.

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME).
