Resumen
The article explores the future impact of computer science in Biology and medical science. Computer science promises to play a key role in biology in the centuries ahead, and the growing interaction between two disciplines is reflected in the term "bio-informatics." The major role that computer science will play in molecular biology for future generations is evident, as both deal with discrete structures and a flow of control that regulates the generation of proteins, much like semaphores dictate program execution. Computers will be essential to simulate cells bath at the micro and macro level. The study of protein folding and protein interactions will require huge computational resources. Once researchers succeed in simulating a cell or clusters of cells, then they can supersede in-vitro and in-vivo experiments by in-silico experiments. Another aspect of biology that may shape future computers is the potential for miniaturization and generation of exponential numbers of biological processors.
