Algebraic biology

Algebraic biology

Algebraic biology applies the algebraic methods of symbolic computation to the study of biological problems, especially in genomics, proteomics, analysis of molecular structures and study of genes.

Usage

Computations in the field of biology are done in order to simulate experiments and/or calculate features of a biologic process or structure. Such as for example calculating mathematical predictions of intercellular features, cellular interaction, body reaction to chemicals and analysis of heritage.
