``Biologists that reduce bioinformatics to simply "the
application of computers in biology" sometimes fail to recognize the
rich intellectual content of bioinformatics. Bioinformatics has
become a part of modern biology and often dictates new fashions,
enables new approaches, and drives further biological
developments.'' Jones
