Genome Informatics (also genoinformatics) is the field of study of information processing and flow in genomes. Genome informatics introduces computer science and statistics techniques and applies them to derive biological information from genome sequences.[1] Genome informatics includes methods to analyze DNA sequence information and to predict protein sequence and structure:[1]. Genome informatics dealing with[2] microbial and metagenomics, sequencing algorithms, variant discovery and genome assembly, evolution, complex traits and phylogenetics, personal and medical genomics, transcriptomics, genome structure and function.[2] Genoinformatics refers to genome and chromosome dynamics, quantitative biology and modeling, molecular and cellular pathologies.[3] Genome informatics also includes the field of genome design.
