About department
The merge between Biotechnology and Information Technology reveals new insights and principles in life sciences. Bioinformatics is the science of managing and analyzing biological data, especially genomic and proteomic research data such as sequence analysis. Students can study tremendous details of biological processes (such as diseases) using the tools of bioinformatics, where they can evaluate the three-dimensional structure; the proteins and chemical messengers it interacts with, and the cellular pathways it participates in. Furthermore, Bioinformatics and functional genomics offer hope to help understand biomedical research questions
