Popularity of cheminformatics vs. bioinformatics based on site specific Google hit counts across 325 universities (US) with research chemistry faculty. For all 325 universities a site specific search on Google was performed and mapped on the graph, i.e. cheminformatics site:berkeley.edu returned 93 hits and bioinformatics site:berkeley.edu returned 3620 hits. Because UC Berkeley hosts more bioinformatics related material it is safe to assume that bioinformatics is more popular than cheminformatics at UC Berkeley. Around 100 universities had no occurrence of the words cheminformatics or chemoinformatics on their global university websites (scores combined); Search date: August 2009.
