Brief Introduction to Cheminformatics
Abstract
Cheminformatic research is the science of computational and informational techniques to solve problems related to chemistry, physics, biology, biochemistry, statistics etc. Cheminformatics involves collection of many different chemical information and data, creating new designs, organizing the collected data and related information, management and analysis of the data. Several tools and computational software are utilized in this. A brief overview is given here to describe cheminformatics and its need and importance for today’s research.
