What is Bioinformatics? – Analysis of biological data with computing & statistical tools. 2. The different aspects of Informatics? • Data Management (Database Technology, Internet Programming) • Analysis/Interpretation of Data (Data Mining, Modeling, Statistical Tools) • Development of Algorithms/ Data Structures • Visualization and Interface Design (HCI, Graphics) 3. How to assist biological research? • propose new models or correlations based on data from experiments • verify a proposed model using known data • propose new experiments based on model or analysis • use predicted information to narrow down search in a biological investigation
