Abstract

The emerging advances of Bioinformatics have already contributed toward the establishment of better next generation medicine and medical systems by putting emphasis on improvement of prognosis, diagnosis and therapy of diseases including better management of medical systems. The purpose of this chapter is to explore ways by which the use of Bioinformatics and Smart Data Analysis will provide an overview and solutions to challenges in the fields of genomics, medicine and Health Informatics. The focus of this chapter would be on Smart Data Analysis and ways needed to filter out the noise. The chapter addresses challenges researchers and data analysts are facing in terms of the developed computational methods used to extract insights from NGS and high-throughput screening data. In this chapter the concept “Wise Data” is proposed reflecting the distinction between individual health and wellness on the one hand, and social improvement, cohesion and sustainability on the other, leading to more effective medical systems, healthier individuals and more socially cohesive societies.
