The new avenues in bioinformatics

Bioinformatics covers several canonical topics, such as gene structure prediction, protein functional classification or structure prediction. The present book explores new frontiers in bioinformatics, such as glycomics or the computational modeling of genetic processes. It also discusses confounding factors that are crucial to the development of the field, such as the ability to protect and restrict intellectual property in the field, or the challenges involved in educating bioinformatics users. Finally, the book touches on some fundamental questions, such as what information is and how it is captured in biological systems.
