Blockchain in Bioinformatics Enhancing Security and Transparency in Systems Biology Research

Abstract

Angelo Jarman*

In the fast-evolving landscape of scientific research, particularly in the realm of systems biology, the need for robust data management and security has become increasingly crucial. Traditional methods of data storage and management have faced challenges related to security breaches, data integrity, and transparency. The integration of blockchain technology in bioinformatics offers a promising solution to address these concerns, providing a decentralized and secure framework for managing and sharing sensitive biological data. In this article, we delve into the intersection of blockchain and bioinformatics, exploring the potential benefits, challenges, and applications of blockchain in enhancing security and transparency in systems biology research.
