Computational biology

This timeline displays the year-by-year progress of the Human Genome Project in the context of genetics since 1865. Starting in 1990, by 1999, Chromosome 22 became the first human chromosome to be completely sequenced.

Computational biology is a interdisciplinary field involving the study of biological systems through the application of computer science, data analysis, mathematical modeling and computational simulations. Other fields of application includes applied mathematics, molecular biology, cell biology, chemistry, and genetics.
