#REDIRECT [[Biological computation]]
In the most literal interpretation of the term, <b>biological mathematics</b> refers to biology of a mathematical nature &mdash; in particular, biological systems  that imbed mathematical operations &mdash; hence, its application to the emerging subdiscipline of biology that explores and exploits the use of biological systems to perform mathematical/computational operations and achieve solutions to mathematical/computational problems &mdash; for example, computing with DNA molecules<ref name=Kari/> &mdash; and that studies the natural occurrence of computational processes in biological and living systems.<ref name=Bray/><ref name=Landweber/><ref name=Simeonov/>
