WHAT DOES BIOINFORMATICS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Bioinformatics

Bioinformatics i/ˌbaɪ.oʊˌɪnfərˈmætɪks/ is an interdisciplinary scientific field that develops methods and software tools for storing, retrieving, organizing and analyzing biological data. As an interdisciplinary field, bioinformatics combines computer science, statistics, mathematics and engineering to study biological data and processes. Information systems such as databases and ontologies are used to store and organize biological data. Analyzing biological data to produce meaningful information involves writing and running software programs that use algorithms from graph theory, artificial intelligence, soft computing, data mining, image processing, and computer simulation. The algorithms in turn depend on theoretical foundations such as discrete mathematics, control theory, system theory, information theory, and statistics. Bioinformatics is similar but distinct science from biological computation and computational biology. Biological computation uses bioengineering and biology to build biological computers, whereas bioinformatics uses computation to better understand biology.

Definition of bioinformatics in the English dictionary
