Bioengineering and bioinformatics: convergent technologies

Abstract

The purpose of this study is the analytical overview of the current understanding of bioengineering and bioinformatics and prospects for further development. The rapid development of these areas in recent years has allowed scientists to go from the simple study of natural biological objects to their change and improvement, improve their beneficial properties to the creation of entirely new biological objects that do not exist in nature. Nano-, bio-, info-, cognitive technologies are the basis of the development of science and technology of the future, the transition to a fundamentally new line — renewable resources and technology, modeled on nature, using the latest technological advances.
