Abstract

Bio-informatics is an interdisciplinary science, which provides life solutions in the discipline of biology and health care by combining the tools available in various disciplines such as computer science, statistics, storage, retrieval and processing of biological data. This interdisciplinary science can provide inputs to diverse sectors such as medical, health, food and agriculture.
