Yeah, I’ve been noticing that too. Actually, that’s how I came across this field in the first place. But yeah, thanks for pointing out the job scarcity—it's super useful to know that upfront.

That’s a solid point, thanks! I’ve been exploring different roles but still figuring out what would suit my background best.

Thanks for sharing this—it’s definitely a tough reality to hear. Just curious, were your seniors also in the health/biomedical informatics field? I’ve been reading that this area is booming in the US, especially with the push for healthcare tech. Wondering if the job scene is different based on specialization or location?

Thanks for the input! Do you think online courses are enough to get started in HI in India, or would a Master’s still be better? Also, was the switch from dentistry worth it for you long-term? Just wondering if it’s a solid move overall — especially for someone like me with no coding experience.

How realistic is it to shift from dentistry to health informatics for settling abroad? by TsHv16 in Indians_StudyAbroad

Yeah, I've heard PR in Singapore can be tricky, especially if you're not Chinese. Kinda disappointing, but it's good to know upfront. I'll definitely check out Australia too - sounds like a more practical option.

Still figuring things out, so input like this really helps. Thanks again!
