Computationally as opposed to in vitro or in vivo.
A term that refers to experiments conducted through computational biology or bioinformatics methods. An example of an in silico experiment would be a comparison of an unknown protein to the sequences of known proteins in a particular database. The unknown protein, discovered and sequenced through traditional biochemistry techniques can be assigned a function or a designated part of a family based on similarities to known sequences. See also in vitro, in vivo, Conservation.
Research done using computer methodologies
Literally "within silicon"; refers to modeling research conducted with computers only.
modeling research conducted by means of computer simulation.3
meaning 'in silicon'. A buzzword to describe research on a computer. Derived from the phrases in vitro ('in glass'- meaning test tube research) and in vivo ('in life'- meaning live animal research), which are commonly used in chemistry.
A method by which certain processes or complete scientific experiments are simulated on a computer.
computer-based predictions that can complement in vitro and in vivo procedures.
Computer mediated. The use of computers to simulate, process, or analyse a biological experiment
Biological discovery using a computer.
A term biologists use to describe a process occurring in a computer, as opposed to in vivo or in vitro
In silico is an expression used to mean "performed on computer or via computer simulation." The phrase is coined from the Latin phrases in vivo and in vitro that are commonly used in biology (see also systems biology) and refer to experiments done in living organisms and outside of living organisms, respectively. Contrary to widespread belief, in silico does not mean anything in Latin.
