The global computational biology market was valued at $5,493.2 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $31,477.1 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 19.5% from 2022 to 2031.
Computational biology is the inter-disciplinary applied science, which utilizes concepts of basic biology through the use of mathematical, theoretical, and computer simulation models to study biological systems, structures, and processes of life.. It entails the use of computational methods (e.g., algorithms) for the representation and simulation of biological systems as well as for the interpretation of experimental data, often on a very large scale.
The sequence and structural similarities of an unknown and a known protein as well as the proteins’ interactions with other molecules are used to make functional predictions. As such analyses can be lengthy, the demand for computational biology has increased rapidly., Therefore, these analyses guide the process of building 3D models of the target protein structure, which are then refined, ranked, and compared with one another to select the final predictions.. Biochemical, regulatory, and genetic pathways are highly branched and interleaved, as well as dynamic, necessitating the use of advanced computational methods to model and analyze them.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on the computational biology market. To curb the spread of COVID-19, governments around the world implemented harsh restrictions such as border locks, lockdowns, and tight social distancing measures. These measures had a significant impact on the global economy, affecting a variety of industries. Pharmaceutical and biotech companies together with governments around the globe are working to address the COVID-19 outbreak, from supporting the development of vaccines to planning for medicine supply chain challenges. Currently, around 115 vaccine candidates and 155 molecules are in the R&D pipeline.
Furthermore, the outbreak of COVID-19 led to high mortality, high contagion rate, and a lack of clinically approved drugs and vaccines. To find safe and effective therapeutic options to treat this infectious disease, computational biology plays an extremely relevant role to better understand the virus pathogenic mechanism as well as to propose novel therapeutic strategies. Accordingly, due to progress in computer science, in silico methodologies in medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, biology, genetics, and virology cover relevant tasks in modern research in these fields. Furthermore, due to the current global health warning, such computational techniques could speed up research to provide innovative and targeted approaches to fight the coronavirus emergency. Hence, computational biology will help the medical science field irreversibly to find a cure and boost the growth of the pharma market.
The growth of the global computational biology market is majorly driven by rise in demand for tools of computational biology in various fields such as genomics, epi-genomics, proteomics, and meta-genomics for better understanding of protein structure and interactions.. In addition, factors fueling the market growth include rise in R&D activities for drug discovery, surge in demand for predictive models, usage in population-based sequencing projects such as human genome project, and government funding.
The application of sophisticated algorithms and statistical models in computational biology to analyze biological data enables researchers to gather critical insights, which can be utilized for discovery of new drugs. Moreover, application of machine learning and artificial intelligence allowed researchers to develop a better understanding of biological systems, discovering new drugs, designing new proteins to cure diseases, and help in understanding genetic code to predict diseases.
