I'm not sure how a degree in computer science relates to fighting AIDS,
I learned a lot about fighting AIDS, cancer, autoimmune disorder and a lot more and I am about computer illiterate.

Thank you @N0help4u
I found some fields like:
Computational physics,Computational chemistry,Bioinformatics.. all are about analyzing and solving scientific problems.
But I need to know the best field that serve my goal.

I read your posts from 4 months ago, asking about the best paying jobs with a Masters in Computer Science.
I'm not sure you 'got' smoothy's answers then, and I'm not sure you understand the work world yet, period. Aiming for an area of study isn't how you guarantee jobs, much less the best ones. As smoothy said, it's a moving target, but it's also just plain how good you are at your GENERAL field, and then you go with your passion.
If you are in the masters program now, and you want to pick a thesis topic, pick what interests you! That's how getting most jobs works - interest. Are you actually interested in AIDS or are you still wanting the best paying job?

That would help rather than starting from scratch and trying to figure out which science would work well with computers.
I was researching AIDS and see that nutrition is one important area. Education is another area.
Which science makes you feel happiest?

If you plan on fighting AIDS... you should have been getting a medical Degree... because its not a computer virus.

Can someone answer me or would it be better to start my own post? Is computer science and medical stuff like AIDS some kind of software or what?
I have a lot of 'formulas' (3 large binders full) for everything from AIDS to Wilsons disease, but I have needed someone to help me with it all.

I'll move this to start a new thread -- but on which board?

Well, concerning that question, I have now different approach for my future job.I find myself much better in computer science so I
Decided to stick with it regardless if electronics can provide best paying jobs.
Many reasons caused me to tend towards the medical area, an important one of them is my fathers death by AIDS few years ago..

Thank you @smoothy, and nice to see you again :)
I was not interested in the medical field the time I attended the college.
