Take Home Message Define the biological problem. Why is bioinformatics important ? A synthesis approach. Prediction is a dangerous game. Always try your best to validate in the bench side. The devil is in the detail. Always try different bioinformatic tools and databases. Your knowledge rests on your own practice.
