Introduction
Bioinformatics is an exciting research field for memetic algorithms (MAs). Its core activity is the integration of techniques from Computer Science, Mathematics and Statistics to address challenging computational problems related with the analysis of large volumes of data. Due to its huge relevance as a means to understand biology in the 21st Century, this field has attracted the attention of many pioneers in MAs, including the authors of this chapter.
