La bioinformática, según una de sus definiciones más sencillas, es la aplicación de tecnología de computadores a la gestión y análisis de datos biológicos. Los términos bioinformática, biología computacional y, en ocasiones, biocomputación, utilizados en muchas situaciones como sinónimos, hacen referencia a campos de estudios interdisciplinarios muy vinculados, que requieren el uso o el desarrollo de diferentes técnicas que incluyen informática, matemática aplicada, estadística, ciencias de la computación, inteligencia artificial, química y bioquímica para solucionar problemas, analizar datos, o simular sistemas o mecanismos, todos ellos de índole biológica, y usualmente (pero no de forma exclusiva) en el nivel molecular […] 2, record 2, Spanish, - biolog%C3%ADa%20computacional
