Bioinformatics

Bioinformatics is an analytical and experimental molecular biology using computational methods. Molecular biologists use computational tools such as computer databases with accompanying algorithms, and specialized simulation software to analyse large quantities of raw genetic information, and to model and analyze biological and genetic processes in-silica. Common applications include protein sequencing and DNA sequencing. Bioinformatics was a key discipline in the sequencing of the human genome.
