Overview

Informatics is a key driver of innovation that is fuelling advances in many aspects of working and everyday life. Computers make it possible to model and predict economic, ecological and social developments; bioinformatics supports the development of new drugs; and thanks to machine learning, large volumes of data become clear and readable, while pattern recognition turns it into a valuable resource with a variety of potential applications. Informatics opens up new options for creating economic added value, protecting the environment and saving lives.
