Guest Editorial Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Special Section

In recent years, we have witnessed many successful applications of bioinformatics and computational biology methods in the field of Bionano to help us understand the biological system in the nanoscale, such as the BioNano nextgeneration mapping system to enhance the performance of physical map construction. Bioinformatics and computational tools and methods are essential to assemble, process, and analyze vast amounts of high-throughput datasets. In this Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Special Section, we have eight papers to reflect the latest developments and research in this exciting area.
