Introduction

Clinical medical bioinformatics is a multidisciplinary field at the intersection of biology, medicine, and data science. It involves the application of computational methods to analyze and interpret biological and clinical data, enabling advancements in personalized medicine, disease diagnosis, and treatment. 

History

The roots of clinical medical bioinformatics can be traced back to the early days of genomics and the Human Genome Project, which marked a turning point in our ability to sequence and analyze DNA. As technology improved, the demand for efficient data analysis and interpretation grew. The term "bioinformatics" emerged to describe the fusion of biology and computer science. Over time, clinical applications gained prominence, leading to the emergence of clinical medical bioinformatics.
