Market Fundamentals
Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that combines science, information science, and mathematics to analyze, visualize and store biological data. Bioinformatics is also known as computational biology. Two major components of bioinformatics include the development of software tools & algorithms and the analysis & interpretation of biological data with the help of a variety of software tools.
Bioinformatics uses multiple programs for a variety of applications such as predicting the 3D shapes of proteins; design novel drugs; determining gene and protein functions; identify correlations between gene sequences and diseases, and determine evolutionary relationships between organisms. Bioinformatics can also be used to identify and modify the structure of natural products. Further, bioinformatics is applied in various applications such as personalized medicine, molecular medicine, drug development, preventive medicine, genomics, biotechnology, forensic analysis, and gene therapy, among others.
