Digital Biology
Digital Biology: the study of the fundamental computation performed by biological processes, from gene regulatory systems to ecosystems and from neural networks to swarming systems. The increasing amount of data that are being acquired, stored, and processed in the life sciences and health sector makes the development of new information technologies one of the key factors for advancing the current state of knowledge in biomedical and health research.
