Abstract
Computational biology, a term coined from analogy to the role of computing in the physical sciences, is now coming into its own as a major element of contemporary biological and biomedical research. Information science and computational science provide essential tools for next generation biological science efforts, from focusing the direction of experimental studies to providing knowledge and insight that can not otherwise be obtained. Going beyond the revolution in biology reflected in the successes of the genome project and driven by the power of molecular biology techniques, computational approaches will provide an underpinning for the integration of broad disciplines for development of a quantitative systems approach to understanding the mechanisms in the life of the cell.
