Computational biology

This timeline displays the year-by-year progress of the Human Genome Project in the context of genetics since 1865. Starting in 1990, by 1999, chromosome 22 became the first human chromosome to be completely sequenced.

Computational biology refers to the use of data analysis, mathematical modeling and computational simulations to understand biological systems and relationships.[1] An intersection of computer science, biology, and big data, the field also has foundations in applied mathematics, chemistry, and genetics.[2] It differs from biological computing, a subfield of computer science and engineering which uses bioengineering to build computers.
