Integrative Bioinformatics: A Branch of Bioinformatics that Focuses on Problems of Data Integration
Author(s): Myron R Szewczuk*
Integrative bioinformatics is a branch of bioinformatics concerned with data integration issues in the biological
sciences. The amount of data collected has increased exponentially as a result of the emergence of high-throughput
(HTP) technology in the life sciences, particularly in molecular biology. Furthermore, the data is dispersed
throughout a variety of public and private repositories, and it is kept in a variety of forms. This circumstance makes it
tough to search for these data and execute the necessary analysis to extract new knowledge from the entire set of
available data. By giving unified access to life science data, integrative bioinformatics seeks to address this issue... View More»
