Carsten Peterson Computational Biology -- Opportunities and Challenges for Theoretical Physicists Proceedings of the Seventh Workshop on Quantum Chromodynamics, H.M Fried, B. Muller and Y. Gabellini (eds.), Singapore, World Scientific (2003) Abstract: Functional genomics offers challenging computational tasks when it comes to analyzing massive amounts of data and model building. A new field is emerging, computational biology, where theoretical physics has an important role to play. We briefly discuss a few areas within the field with some emphasis on microarray gene expression analysis. LU TP 03-23
