Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics is the study and manipulation of DNA sequence data. The manner in which DNA 'stores' the genetic code, and other molecular behaviours have led outside fields to make use of the DNA behaviour. In computer science, string searching algorithms, machine learning and database theory have all been improved using a better understanding of bioinformatic technology.
Coined by Paulien Hogewog in 1978, the term bioinformatics refers to the study of information processing in relation to biological organisms. Bioinformatics works both ways as a discipline, in the sense that it not only draws information 'out' of behavioural biology, but is also the term used in reference to the application of theory to the management and analyses of biological data. Primarily, bioinformatics serves the purpose of better understanding the nature of biological processes.
Today, the field of bioinformatics includes such activities as the analysis of DNA and other protein sequences, aligning DNA molecules with other proteins for comparison as well as the creation and observation of computer assisted 3-d modeling technologies. Understandings developed in these analyses lead to useful advances in other popular fields including the life sciences and computer science.
With only a handful of companies serving the bioinformatics discipline, this is a competitive, albeit incredibly useful field of modern understanding. Advances in the field of bioinformatics allow for the cross examination of biological structure with computer science, essentially 'mapping' biological sequences into computationally behavioral functions; allowing for such things as genetic engineering.

»Cracking the Code of Life (2001) - DNA DVD
Description : The work of geneticists who have labored for years to map human DNA is the subject of this offbeat yet highly informative documentary from the PBS series Nova. Host Robert Krulwich, a correspondent for ABC Nightline, visits with scientists who explain, in terms understandable to laymen, the enormous challenges faced and overcome by scientists working on the Human Genome Project.

»DNA (Paperback)
Description : What makes DNA different from hordes of competitors purporting to help readers understand genetics is that it is written by none other than James Watson, of Watson and Crick fame. He and his co-author Andrew Berry have produced a clear and easygoing history of genetics, from Mendel through genome sequencing. Watson offers readers a sense of immediacy, a behind-the scenes familiarity with some of the most exciting developments in modern science.

»Applied Bioinformatics: An Introduction (Book)
Description : So far, sciences students have no systematic introduction available into the structure of data bases and the intelligently structured search for information. The new text book of Selzer, Marhöfer and Rohwer here fills this gap. The book can be thoroughly recommended to students and instructors in the sciences and molecular medicine. It also can be very useful for biocomputering courses being established at a growing number of universities.
