I am a computational physicist and not a biologist.  I am extremely
experienced with computational mathematics and physics however, including
running a small research group in computational physics.  I subscribed to 
this newsgroup out of curiosity.  We are looking for new areas to get involved
in and computational biology would seem to me to be a rather interesting
one.  So, to that end, I would be interested to hear from people what they
consider the major problems in computational biology.  Perhaps there are
things from computational physics that could help or things from
computational biology that could help computational physics.  There is 
too little interchange between fields.  Wanna help me change that?
