bioinformaticists or bioinformaticians

Hi!
On bioinformatics.org there is this old poll:
- http://bioinformatics.org/poll/index.php?dispid=4

Asking if bioinformatics people are supposed to be called bioinformaticist or bioinformaticians, and if they are technicians or scientits.

I'm sure we're scientists ;), but for the first question, which are the differences between the two terms?
I'm not english mother-tongue, so I don't get it.. when I write in my CV, or in a forum/blog post, or in a mail... should I say that I'm a (supposed to be) bioinformaticist or bioinformatician?

Thanks!! ;)
