Bioinformatics: Science that derives information from computer analysis of biological data Information flow: Input Storage Retrieval Data analysis Concepts of computational science, statistics, mathematics, linguistics, biological sciences... Hypothesis Inductive process Deductive process Data Bioinformatics refers to the creation and advancement of algorithms, computational and statistical techniques, and theory to solve formal and practical problems posed by or inspired from the management and analysis of biological data. Computational biology refers to hypothesis-driven investigation of a specific biological problem using computers, carried out with experimental and simulated data, with the primary goal of discovery and the advancement of biological knowledge Data: 1) Information from genomes / genetic code 2) Biochemical results, patient statistics, etc. 3) Scientific literature
