This maybe a rudimentary question, but if someone was going to study this at a university level, what would they study?

I ask because I'm starting my masters in CS, but I've also been going to workshops/events at a local citizen bio lab and really enjoying it. I'd really like to go deeper into the cross-section of CS and Bio, specifically the kinds of things listed in this repo (modeling biological phenomenon as formal systems, using computation to simulate those systems, etc.)

But when I look at potential programs to pursue after my CS course, I get a bit lost in all the different titles—bioinformatics, systems biology, computational biology, etc. It's hard for an outsider in the field to discern any meaningful delineation. Does anyone with experience in the field know what category of study these resources would fall under, from a university perspective?
