Bioinformatics

Computational analysis of large, complex sets of biological data

Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field of science that develops computational methods and software tools for understanding biological data, especially when the data sets are large and complex. Bioinformatics integrates principles from biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, data science, computer programming, information engineering, mathematics, and statistics to analyze and interpret biological data. This process can sometimes be referred to as computational biology; however, the distinction between the two terms is often disputed.
