Computational Biology
Definition of Computational Biology as it relates to Science, Life Science, Astronomy
Computational biology in the context of astronomy involves the application of computational methods and algorithms to study biological systems, particularly in the field of astrobiology. It encompasses areas such as bioinformatics, system biology, and theoretical biology, with an emphasis on understanding how life originated, evolved, and is distributed in the universe. Researchers in this area utilize computational models to simulate and analyze biological processes, including molecular evolution, genetics, and ecological systems, within the context of astronomical phenomena such as stellar and planetary formation, interstellar medium, and cosmic radiation. This interdisciplinary field draws on concepts from biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, and computer science to advance our understanding of the origin, evolution, and distribution of life in the universe.
