Abstract

The integration of bioinformatics and computational genomics has revolutionized disease prediction, enabling the identification of genetic markers associated with various diseases. In Pakistan, where genetic diversity is vast, these technologies offer significant potential for personalized medicine and early diagnosis. This paper explores the applications of bioinformatics and computational genomics in disease prediction, highlighting recent advancements and their implications for healthcare in Pakistan
