A wide set of interesting problems in medicine and biology can be effectively tackled with computational methods, with a high gain in terms of knowledge, speed and scientific insight.
Notable examples include:
– systems which can be simulated, such as the behavior of biopolymers in solution
– large-scale data analysis, typically of experimental datasets
– Machine Learning methods either to make predictions (like predicting RNA structure from its sequence), or for classification tasks (for example in automated inspection of medical images).
