Description: This website, written by Ulf Reimer and Georg Fuellen and presented by the University of Bielefeld in Germany, offers a broad introduction to bioinformatics. Beginning with the development of modern molecular biology, and then discussing the huge amount of data and how to analyze it, the article concludes that an interdisciplinary approach to biocomputing is advantageous because it allows research to "transcend the limits of reductionism; from the vast quantities of bytes and pieces, the contours of complex structures and relationships might emerge from the genetic alphabet soup as life itself once emerged from the primordial soup."
