Theory, informatics and simulation have become indispensable tools in scientists' quest to understand the complexities of biomolecules, and of the living systems they form. The computational problems that biology poses are tremendously challenging, but the power of computer hardware is still growing exponentially. Researchers are CARB are employing theory and computation in a range of applications, including evolutionary analysis of proteins, modeling and predicting the health consequences of specific mutations, and computer-aided molecular design.
