Bioinformatics: an interdisciplinary field that develops and improves upon the methods for storing, retrieving, organizing, and analyzing biological data.
Uses for technology include:
~ Sequencing and annotating genomes
~ Analyzing gene and protein regulation
~ Analyzing gene mutations (i.e. cancer)
~ Helps track and store different types of DNA and RNA
~ Allows information to be easily spread globally to further biological research
