Crash Course Biology - Season 2 Episode 40 Algorithms Aren’t Just for TikTok: Bioinformatics
On its own, a huge DNA sequence is a meaningless pile of data — so, how do biologists figure out what it means? They turn to the power of bioinformatics! In this episode, we’ll learn what bioinformatics is, how it works, and how scientists have used it to better understand everything from evolution to a viral epidemic.
