    Computational Biology is an interdisciplinary area that uses Computer Science, Statistics, and Mathematics to help address biological problems, whereas bioinformatics integrates Biological knowledge with computer programming and massive quantities of big data.

    So, this is the main distinction between computational Biology and Bioinformatics. Contrary to computational Biology, Bioinformatics requires a higher level of technical and programming expertise. The field of Bioinformatics focuses on practical training in the disciplines of Computer Science, Engineering, and Statistics to process data pertaining to Biology.
