What is the difference between biomathematics and bioinformatics?
Bio-mathematics is a science that studies the quantitative relationship and spatial structure in biology. Biomathematics is usually divided into two parts. Part of it is a new branch of biology that uses mathematical methods to study biological problems, called mathematical biology, including mathematical ecology, quantitative genetics and quantitative physiology. The other part is a new branch of mathematics formed by mathematical problems in biology, called biomathematics. It includes biostatistics, biological control theory, biological system theory, ecological mathematics and so on.

Bioinformatics is a subject that studies the collection, processing, storage, dissemination, analysis and interpretation of biological information. It is also a new discipline formed by the combination of life science and computer science with the rapid development of life science and computer science. It comprehensively uses biology, computer science and information technology to reveal the biological mystery endowed by a large number of complex biological data.
