Bio- Informatics and Computational Biology-
The Bio-Informatics expert finds solution to Microbiological problems at the Molecular level by means of the technological knowledge of Mathematics, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Informatics, Statistics, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence. The researches on Computational Biology are found to be useful in Systems Biology also. Researches are on, in branches like sequence alignment, gene binding, genome assembly, and protein structure alignment, protein structure protection, gene expression protection, protein production interaction and modeling of evaluation.
A Genome of organism is formed due to the fusion of thousands of fibres. It is known as sequence assembly. The specialists of Bio Informatics carry out researches with the aid of Computers.
The Gene analysis helps to identify the DNA sequence of Genome Fiber and studies the function of the Gene. A comparative study of the Gene selected and the Gene already known is done. Through this they find out the role of DNA in causing the disease. They use extremely sophisticated computers and exclusively designed software to know about it. This is a vital research in Bio-Informatics.
Protonix is the research conducted by selecting the specific part of Genome. After identifying the problem, it exercises the most suitable medicine to devise gene therapy.
Information Technology is highly dynamic in Molecular Biology Researches. Job opportunities are escalating in Research Institutions, Industries and Hospitals concerned with Bio-Technology, Bio-Medicals and Pharmaceuticals. There are also possibilities to get responsible positions like Pharmacologist, Clinical Pharmacologist, Informatics Developer, Computational Chemist, Bio-Analytics and Analytics.
