bioinformatics

Back And Forth.....
a: Bioinformatics ~
b: tango
What: "My bioinformatic story starts with the pink issue, goes through looking for solutions, learning and discoveries of the new computer science world and ends somewhere at the periphery of the cell nucleus. It's my own personal journey into the 21st century technology and the programming way of thinking; problem solving and team work. Because bioinformatics is like tango, it takes two, the bio(logist) and the computer expert."

Using The Right Tools Helps A Lot
a: Bioinformatics ~
b: woodworking
What: "As for how to get started, pick up a textbook and start learning the
biology that motivates bioinformatics and the algorithms and tools for
doing things. Try things that look interesting, apply examples on new
genes and new genomes. A lot of bioinformatics is like woodworking--
fairly well-established tools and procedures but a world of genomes to
work on."

Of Course It Is.....
a: Bioinformatics ~
b: an application of computer science
What: "To me bioinformatics is like an application in computer science," said Wolfe. "There seems to be a lot of opportunity because of medical research. I really like doing it. It happened to be a good fit."

Yes +yes=yes
a: Bioinformatics ~
b: mathmatical biology
What: "Bioinformatics is like mathematical biology, he said. Bioinformatics tends to be involved in genetics, he added. His plan is to eventually get into doing research in genetics, a topic he finds fascinating."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
