title: Rust-Bio: a fast and safe bioinformatics library.
abstract: CONCLUSIONS
  We present Rust-Bio, the first general purpose bioinformatics library for the innovative Rust programming language. Rust-Bio leverages the unique combination of speed, memory safety and high-level syntax offered by Rust to provide a fast and safe set of bioinformatics algorithms and data structures with a focus on sequence analysis.
  
  
  METHODS
  Rust-Bio is available open source under the MIT license at https://rust-bio.github.io.
