What is Bioinformatics? – Towards Data Science – Medium

The explosion of data from high throughput biological experiments like sequencing and micro-arrays has led to the science called Bioinformatics. Bioinformatics is the interdisciplinary science which is similar to Data Science for solving biological problems. According to Wikipedia "Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary science, ultimately aiming to understand biology". Our human body can be break down into small machineries of cells which is involved in complex processes. These cells are controlled by the central processing unit called DNA (De-oxyribo Nucleic Acid).
