Computational-Biology
Computational biology involves the development and application of data-analytical and theoretical methods, mathematical modeling and computational simulation techniques to the study of biological, ecological, behavioral, and social systems. The field is broadly defined and includes foundations in biology, applied mathematics, statistics, biochemistry, chemistry, biophysics, molecular biology, genetics, genomics, computer science and evolution.
It is different from biological computing, which is a subfield of computer science and computer engineering using bioengineering and biology to build computers, but is similar to bioinformatics, which is an interdisciplinary science using computers to store and process biological data.Sub Fields:
· Computational anatomy
· Computational biomodeling
· Computational genomics
· Computational neuroscience
· Computational pharmacology
· Computational evolutionary biology
· Cancer computational biology
· Computational neuropsychiatry
