• bioinformatics - comparison of sequence data, involving computer and statistical analysis
• phylogenetics - the study of evolutionary history and relationships among different groups of organisms and makes use of information obtained from sequence data
• phylogenetic tree - uses info from sequence data and fossil records

  bacteria, archea, eukaryotes
• pharmacogenetics - study of inherited genetic differences in how people respond to drugs and medicines. people can get personalised medicine to select the most effective drugs and doses for people
