Le Bioinformatics

This website is all about bioinformatics.
It talks about how the major advances and excess amounts of information needed to be organized and stored in a database, thus resulting in bioinformatics. It explains why bioinformatics is important and necessary. It provides scientists with a more global perspective in experimental design and is able to fund on the surfacing technology of database-mining (process in which testable hypotheses are generated by the function or structure of a gene or protein of interest by finding smaller sequences in better characterized organisms).
It also talks about biological databases, evolutionary biology, protein modeling, genome mapping, and tools used in bioinformatics. For example, "Map Viewer" is used to visualize whole genomes or single chromosomes.
