bioinformatics
n.
use of computers in biological research (such as the use of computerized databases for genomes, proteins, etc.)
Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics and computational biology involve the use of techniques including
applied mathematics,
informatics,
statistics,
computer science,
artificial intelligence,
chemistry, and
biochemistry to solve
biological problems usually on the
molecular level. Research in computational biology often overlaps with
systems biology. Major research efforts in the field include
sequence alignment,
gene finding,
genome assembly,
protein structure alignment,
protein structure prediction, prediction of
gene expression and
protein-protein interactions, and the modeling of
evolution.
