Bioinformatics is an increasingly important field in many areas of biological science today, especially in the rapidly-developing areas of genetics and genomics. This book brings together papers discussing the challenges facing the field today, as well as giving many examples of the current and emerging trends in bioinformatics. The first section includes research papers on the development of a hybrid federated cloud computing platform for use in the bioinformatic workflow of genetic analysis, the molecular modelling of interactions between ligands and their host molecules, and microRNA cloning. The second section discusses methodological issues and trends. It includes a useful overview of the historical development of bioinformatics in modern biology, as well as reviewing many of the current challenges in the field, such as data mining and emerging applications in silico experimental work. The final section considers some key areas of development, such as recent trends in allergen informatics and the gene prioritization problem. The book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in molecular biology and genetics, as well as those with interests in biostatistics and computational science.
