Computational Biology
Advances in technology across all areas of science have ushered in an era of big data, providing researchers with unprecedented opportunities to understand how biological systems function and interact. Scientists are now faced with the challenge of developing sophisticated computational tools capable of unravelling these data and uncovering important biological signals. Computational biology will continue to play a key role in facilitating multi-disciplinary collaborations, encouraging data sharing and establishing experimental and analytical standards in the life sciences.
IBM Watson Health is pioneering a new partnership between humanity and technology with the goal of transforming health and wellness. We are working to use cognitive technologies to help people expand their knowledge base, improve their productivity and deepen their expertise. With cognitive computing, we are now able to see health data that was previously hidden, and do more than we ever thought possible.
