Biological systems are simply the most intriguing information processing paradigms.
Several conferences and an increasing body of research are addressing the need for further understanding and applications of the nature and capabilities of biological processes. DNA is being used as a basic building blocks for self-assembly of nanostructures. Immune systems are being studied to understand complex issues in data security. Computational techniques and information science, on the other hand, are proving to be important tools to manage and understand the extraordinary complexity of building and automatizing databases, gene mapping, gene sequencing, etc. This seminar will address this interface of molecular biocomputing.
