Vetinformatics: A New Paradigm for Quality Veterinary Services

Abstract

Abstract
Infectious disease management in animals is a tedious task in the developing world. Computational advancements in medical sciences play a crucial role in the drug development and research. Clinical trials may have the limitations due to the ethical issues, hence a new arena has been used to explore for minimization of animal modelling. “Vetinformatics” is the new approach which deals with databases, proteomics, genomics, drug designing, phylogenetics etc. in veterinary sciences. In-silico drug discovery in veterinary sciences is yet to develop up to the mark in developing countries like India. Application of vetinformatics needs to be focused in future to strengthen veterinary service, research and its development.
Keywords: Vetinformatics, in-silico drug discovery, bioinformatics
