BIOINFORMATICS

Introduction

Bioinformatics is the use of information Technology in the field of Molecular Biology or the application of Computer technology to the management and analysis of biological data. Here computers are used to gather analysis and merge biological data. It is an emerging interdisciplinary research area and is increasingly being used to improve the quality of life.

The ultimate goal of Bioinformatics is to uncover the wealth of biological information, hidden in the mass of sequence, Structure, Literature and other biological data and obtain a clearer insight into enhance the standard of life for mankind
