With the development of new molecular technologies, genetic screening has become an integral part of modern medical diagnostics to uncover results of clinical significance. A large amount of data has been generated from these molecular technologies. With the increasing demand of Genetic and Genomic Services, there is a need for the Medical Laboratory Technologists to acquire the skills and knowledge of the advances in genomic analysis for clinical diagnosis. Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field of biology and computational science. It uses computer programmes to compare and analyse the sequences of biological molecules.
