Systems biology includes the study of systems of biological components, which may be molecules, cells, organisms or entire species. Systems Biology deals with data and models at many different scales, from individual molecules through to whole organisms. Computational systems biology addresses questions fundamental to our understanding of life and progress here will lead to practical innovations in medicine, drug discovery and engineering. It aims to develop and use efficient algorithms, data structures, visualization and communication tools with the goal of computer modelling of biological systems. Systems Biology approach harnesses the power of computation and systems-level analyses to formulate and solve critical biological problems. This integrative approach of systems biology will close the loop from individual genetics to populations, and constitute the strongest asset for the successful translation of systems biology findings to clinical applications.

Genomics includes the study of genomes, particularly the set of techniques, analytical methods, and scientific questions related to the study of complete genomes. Scientists have progressed from the analysis of a small number of genes to the analysis of thousands of genes, from the study of the units of inheritance to the whole genome of an organism. Genomics straps the availability of complete DNA sequences for entire organisms by the latest next-generation sequencing technology. Next-generation sequencing has led to spectacular improvements in the speed, capacity and affordability of genome sequencing. Genome sequencing is expected to have the most impact in characterizing and diagnosing genetic diseases; for appropriate treatment; and providing information about an individual’s likely response to treatment to reduce adverse drug reactions. Genomics and bioinformatics are now poised to revolutionize the healthcare system by developing customized and personalized medicine.

Proteomics is a branch of molecular biology that is concerned with the systematic, high-throughput approach to protein expression investigation of an organism or a cell. It is a large-scale comprehensive study of a specific proteome, including information on protein affluence, their variations and alterations, along with their interacting partners and networks, in order to discern cellular processes. Proteomics enables the understanding the structure, function and interactions of the entire protein content in a specific organism. Bioinformatics for proteomics has grown significantly in the recent years. The ability to process a high amount of data together with high specificity and precision of the new algorithm in the protein description, characterization and quantization makes it possible to obtain a high amount of elaborated data. Bioinformatics tools for proteomics have diverse applications ranging from simple tools to compare protein amino acid compositions to refined software for massive protein structure determination.

Clinical Informatics otherwise known as Healthcare Informatics is the application of information technology and informatics to provide healthcare services.Health informatics and bioinformatics comes under biomedical informatics which involves translational bioinformatics which analyzes the relationship between biological and clinical data. Health informatics also called medical informatics ,nursing informatics which redefined the health care in designing, implementing and analysing clinical data Clinical Informatics is concerned with use of information in health care by clinicians. Personalized Medicine assures patient-tailored treatments that upgrade patient care and reduce overall treatment costs by focusing on and “-omics” data gathered from patient. Preventive Medicine targets on the health of individuals, groups, and defined populations. Molecular Medicine strives to advocate the understanding of normal body functioning and disease pathogenesis at molecular level. Bioelectronic Medicine is the merging of molecular medicine, neuroscience and bioengineering to develop therapies. Clinical research leads to generation of high-quality, statistically sound and reliable data from clinical trials maintained in Clinical Databases. Bioinformatics tools are profitable in Medical Research helps in the comparison of genetic and genomic data and understanding of various molecules that are amenable for the disease helps to analyze and document the biological systems and pathways. The analytical capability of bioinformatics podium united with clinical data from patient in Electronic Medical Reports can affirm potential biomarkers and clinical phenotypes that allow researchers to develop experimental strategies using selected patient.

Evolutionary Bioinformatics is an advanced discipline that addresses the practice of data processing and the engineering of data for the investigation of biological evolution. Amassing of information at the huge scale has turned out to be progressively cost-efficient through latest advances in high-throughput genotyping and sequencing innovations. It sees genomes as medium for conveying different types of data through the generations from the past to present. The study of evolutionary biology uncovers that living beings of different types which were previously oblivious originated over the span of numerous eras mostly through moderate and progressive alterations.

Structural bioinformatics is a sub discipline of bioinformatics that deals with the three dimensional structures of biomolecules. This field portrays the goals to create methods for manipulating information about biological macromolecules and the application of these methods to solve problems in biology and creating new knowledge. It attempts to model and discover the basic principles underlying biological machinery at the molecular level. Structural bioinformatics combines applications of physical and chemical principles with algorithms from computational science. With the success of the genome sequencing projects, the evolution of high-throughput methods for expression analysis and compound identification, structural bioinformatics is now resurgent and is doing its part to accelerate the drug discovery process. The techniques that structural bioinformatics involves are particularly valuable in the area from target identification to lead discovery.

Practically about 600 bioinformatics tools were advanced over the past two years, and are being used to facilitate data analysis and its interpretation. Web assistance in bioinformatics provides interfaces that have been developed for an ample array of applications for bioinformatics. The main enhancement derived from the fact that end users do not have to deal with software and database preservation overheads. There are differing software predominant for bioinformatics like open-source, sequence alignment, healthcare, freeware molecular graphics systems, biomedical and molecular mechanics modelling. In more recent advances, the equivalent of an industrial revolution for ontology was pronounced by the apparition of latest technologies representing bio-ontologies.

Immunology involves the development and application of methods of bioinformatics, mathematics and statistics for the study of immune system biology. Through drug discovery mechanism new drugs can be discovered and designed and the causes of the diseases can be analyzed and ways could be found to tackle them. The modern drug discovery process integrates the understanding of the molecular basis for a disease with crucial understanding of how potential drug molecules interact with particular disease targets and the whole organism. Bioinformatics is a growing field which can explore the causes of diseases at the molecular level, explain the occurrence of the diseases from the genetic angle and make use of computer techniques to diminish the scope of study and enhance the efficiency of the results so as to curtail the cost and time.

Clinical case reports are compelling source of evidence in the field of medicine and is aimed to improve global health and concise about a common or critical clinical scenario and develop a broader search for evidence. Case reports provide detailed information of the symptoms, diagnosis, signs, treatment, and effect of an individual patient. It contains a demographic report of the patient, but usually portrays an unusual or new instance. A favourable case report gives a clear perception about the gravity of the observation being reported. Case report aids in the identification of advanced trends or diseases and discover new drug, its side effects and potential usage. It even analyzes limited manifestations of a disease. Case reports play a significant role in medical discipline thereby administering a structure for case-based training.
