Computational biology though has advanced in recent years
because of the increase of cpu power and improvement of
methodology but I would NOT say computational biology
alone can solve the gene/protein function and regulation
problem without "traditional experimental biology".
Experimental biology are evolving rapidly. In the post-
genomincs era, functional genomics, structural genomics and
proteomics, etc. will be the focus. And this can be done
only when experimental biology and informatics are combined
in a creative way.
The problem with bioinformatics and computational biology by
our current technology is that they deal with information
efficiently but when encountering the MEANING of information
they seem to be dumb. I would hope this can be improved soon.
The "meaning" has to be sought in the context of biology,
which experimental biology still has to play the role.
