Bioinformatics with AI#

A Modern Introduction to Computational Biology and Artificial Intelligence

By Dr. Cary Woods · Envoi Publishing

About This Book#

This book teaches bioinformatics through paired examples: each concept is shown first as a plain (“vanilla”) Python script, then revisited using AI assistance so you can see how large language models change the way this work gets done.

How It Is Organized#

• Foundations (Chapter 1) — the language of life and how biology becomes data
• Analysis (Chapters 2-4) — Python basics, the central dogma, biological data
• Genomics (Chapters 5-8) — alignment, motifs, expression, protein structure
• AI-Native (Chapters 9-14) — genome analysis, metagenomics, single-cell, LLM reasoning, pipelines, and capstone projects
