Data Mining is used to discover patterns and relation-ships in data, with an emphasis on large observational data bases. Despite the obvious connections between data mining and statistical data analysis, most of the methodologies used in Data Mining have so far originated in elds other than Statistics.

Introduction to bioinformatics tools and software
01 April 2009
Bioinformatic tools are software programs that are designed for extracting the meaningful information from the mass of molecular biology / biological databases & to carry out sequence or structural analysis. Factors that must be taken into consideration when designing bioinformatics tools, software and programmes are: * The end user (the biologist) may not be a frequent user [...]
Introduction to bioinformatics databases
01 April 2009
A bioinformatics/biological database is a large, organized body of persistent data, usually associated with computerized software designed to update, query, and retrieve components of the data stored within the system. A simple database might be a single file containing many records, each of which includes the same set of information. For example, a record associated [...]
Bioinformatics research fields
01 April 2009
Bioinformatics research fields broadly classified to the following sub-fields. Some research fields have inter related with one another SEQUENCE ANALYSIS The term “sequence analysis” implies subjecting a DNA or peptide sequence to sequence alignment, sequence databases, repeated sequence searches, or other bioinformatics methods on a computer. Sequence analysis in bioinformatics is an automated, computer-based examination of characteristical fragments. [...]
Bioinformatics Definition
01 April 2009
Bioinformatics derives knowledge from computer analysis of biological data. These can consist of the information stored in the genetic code, but also experimental results from various sources, patient statistics, and scientific literature. Research in bioinformatics includes method development for storage, retrieval, and analysis of the data. Bioinformatics is a rapidly developing branch of biology and [...]

The Cell Cycle-Video tutorial
The cell cycle, or cell-division cycle, is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its replication. In prokaryotes, the cell cycle occurs via a process termed binary fission. In eukaryotes, the cell cycle can be divided in two brief periods: interphase—during which the cell grows, accumulating nutrients [...]

How to make Phylogram-Video Tutorial
Posted on 16 August 2009
A Phylogenetic tree or Phylogram, sometimes called the ‘Tree of Life’, shows the evolutionary relationships among various biological species or other entities that are believed to have a common ancestor. Each node with descendants represents the most recent common ancestor of the descendants, with edge lengths in our tree, corresponding to time estimates. Each node in a phylogenetic tree is called a taxonomic unit.
