“Sense plus nonsense equals bioinformatics”
~ Bertrand Russell on bioinformatics
Bioinformatics is the marriage between computers and lovely living organisms like you and me. The dowry in the marrage is 100000000000 US$. Bioinformaticians often marry among themselves and reproduce bioinformaticians. The information about their sequence of marriage is recorded, analysed and models of reproduction were initially made. But, later on some interestingly investigating bioinformaticians found that some bioinformatics couples gave birth of tigers instead of bioinformaticians. So, all bioinformaticians were in worry. So, they were in need to propose another model to deal with phylogeny and evolution.
Bioinformatics History
Bioinformatics was invented by the uncle of all biophysics. Some people believe that bioinformatics is nothing but the renamed version of biophysics. Some other believe that the bioinformatics is nothing but the biotechnology. Bioinformatics has no father and mother. It is an orphan. There is no one to claim a right. Everyone can either be a father or mother of bioinformatics. After all, it is a creation of God.
The Bioinformatician
A typical bioinformatician is one who forgets his/her name in the internet and searches for it in the internet. Typically bioinformatician will talk about match, mismatch, score, score values, PDB, PDF, EBI, NCBI, PERL, CGI, and Gnome and Ptome.
The basis of Bioinformatic Analysis
Similar sequence of letters has to pronounced similarly. The words pronounced similarly will have similar meaning and those are the products of same nerds. The algorithms to find the difference and similarities among foools and intellects is too lengthy and when implemented in mainframes it would occupy terabytes of data.
The Applications of Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics helps you to find your match at all levels. Ask a bioinformatician. They would tell you who would be your right match, who would be your wrong match, lost match. In simple terms, bioinformaticians are match makers. They do watch and play cricket match, football match and so soo zoo zoo match.
The Achievements
So far 10 trillion personalized drugs have been designed, synthesized and marketed, consumed with the help of bioinformatics technology. No one survived after the consumption of the drug. There is a big tie and lie between industry and bioinformatics.
