Abstract
Bioinformatics is a new field of current interest that came into existence when biology and information technology (IT) converged to explore the chemical basis of life at large. Present millennium is likely to see a revolution in clinical practices as research in the field unfolds genetic informations and supercomputers assist in organizing, understanding and analyzing this information for a meaningful purpose. Advances in hardware and software tools have helped to identify the genetic sequences pertaining to organisms and this unravels gene expressions for specific diseases. Future of medicine is likely to be based on molecular simulations and 3D structural and surface analysis of gene expressions to provide for individualized post natal treatment for aberrations in hereditary instructions. Although applications of Bioinformatics in medicine have mainly been highlighted in the paper, this science of bioinformatics is applicable to other relevant fields such as of agro and environmental sciences. An overview of the integration between biotechnological components and IT for disease diagnosis/treatment, DNA sequencing, computational biology, drug design and crime solving has been elaborated.
