The field of bioinformatics has seen significant advancements in recent years, particularly in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) for the analysis and interpretation of large-scale data ...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is diminishing the effectiveness of existing antibiotics and intensifying the need for discovery pipelines that are both ...

Computational scientists and cancer experts have devised bioinformatics software to evaluate how well current strategies distinguish cancer-promoting mutations from benign mutations in cancer cells.

Single guide ribonucleic acid (sgRNA) molecules are produced by discontinuous transcription, in which viral RNA-dependant RNA polymerase pauses early negative-sense RNA synthesis and then jumps to the ...

A Belgian team of computational biologists led by Stein Aerts (VIB-KU Leuven) has developed a new bioinformatics method called cisTopic. Inspired by text-mining methods, cisTopic helps scientists to ...

When a tree dies, it forms the foundation for new life: In a slow, invisible process, leaves, wood and roots are gradually decomposed—not by wind or weather, but by millions and millions of tiny ...

In their search for new ways to treat cancer, many scientists are using a high-tech process called genome sequencing to hunt for genetic mutations that encourage tumor cells to thrive. To aid in this ...

Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that combines biology, computer science, mathematics, and statistics to analyze and interpret biological data. It involves the development and application ...

We are living in an era where biology has become synonymous with big data due to the ever-increasing amount of data being generated by technologies such as next-generation sequencing. Bioinformatics ...
