Systems Biology: The Next Frontier for Bioinformatics

Biochemical systems biology augments more traditional disciplines, such as genomics, biochemistry and molecular biology, by championing (i) mathematical and computational modeling; (ii) the application of traditional engineering practices in the analysis of biochemical systems; and in the past decade increasingly (iii) the use of near-comprehensive data sets derived from 'omics platform technol...

Ontologies for molecular biology and bioinformatics

About five years ago, ontology was almost unknown in bioinformatics, even more so in molecular biology. Nowadays, many bioinformatics articles mention it in connection with text mining, data integration or as a metaphysical cure for problems in standardisation of nomenclature and other applications. This article attempts to give an account of what concept ontologies in the domain of biology and...

Training for bioinformatics and computational biology

The explosive increase in biological information produced by large-scale genome sequencing and gene/protein expression projects has created a demand that greatly exceeds supply for researchers trained both in biology and in computer science—two quite different disciplines. National funding agencies both in the US and Europe have committed significant resources to Bioinformatics training. Dozens...
