Biological Information and Its Users

“…Benoit [3] notes that the collaboration of computer scientists and molecular biologists has generated an impressive collection of tools to manage data, conduct analyses, and present results that would not be possible without the integration of these disciplines. While the term bioinformatics has been reserved for the application of information technology, data mining, visualization, and other computational tools to questions in molecular biology, the other biological sciences (that is, those whose research purviews reside above the level of molecule, from the cell to whole systems) have also been aided by "informatics" and in turn have generated vast quantities of data.…”

The resulting data (often the results of extremely intensive string manipulations [3] is stored in databases that may be local, publicly available, or commercial/proprietary.…”
