Bioinformatics is based on level of biological organization, so it can get the information from macromolecule to whole organism. It means bioinformatics can help to analyze from the macromoleule likes DNA to the whole organism likes human.</p><p style="text-align: left">In addition, according to 'Wikipedia, informatics', &quot;The English term <i>Informatics</i> is sometimes understood as meaning the same as <a title="Computer science" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_science">computer science</a>. The German word <i>Informatik</i> is usually translated to English as <i>computer science</i>.&quot;</p><p style="text-align: left">Therefore, Principle of Bioinformatics is that gather the information(data) and&nbsp;analyze by using both Computer Sciences and Biology field.</p><p style="text-align: left">&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: left">&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: left">&nbsp;</p>
