Applications in Computational Biology
and Bioinformatics

Recent advancement and wide use of high-throughput technologies for biological research are producing enormous size of biological data distributed worldwide. With the rapid increase in size of biological data banks, understanding the biological data has become critical. Such an understanding could lead us to the elucidation of the secrets of life or ways to prevent certain currently non-curable diseases. Although laboratory experiment is the most effective method for investigating the biological data, it is financially expensive and labor intensive.
