Infos

Concepts in Bioinformatics and Genomics takes a conceptual approach, balancing biology, mathematics, and programming while highlighting real-world applications and providing students with the tools to compute and analyze biological data. Thought-provoking exercises stretch students' imagination to help build a deeper understanding of the subject. Key features- Reinforces students' understanding of molecular life sciences while gradually introducing students to programming concepts. - A running case study throughout every chapter, exploring the "e;human tumor suppressor gene"e;, imparts a deep understanding of molecular biology principles as well as how bioinformatics tools can be used to make progress in research. - Topics are introduced within the context of practical biological problems which demonstrate an understanding of biological principles and the use of bioinformatics tools. - Provides insights about influential scientists through a "e;Pioneers in Bioinformatics"e; feature, engaging students in how we know what we know, and helping to humanize scientific research. - An independent chapter focuses on quantitative skills, which covers the essentials on counting, statistics, expectation value probabilities, Hidden Markov Models, and Bayes' Theorem. - Within the e-book, students can access resources such as datasets, links to bioinformatic tools and programming tools to support answering the exercises. - Lecturers are provided with solutions manuals to the exercises in the instructor online resources. Digital formats and resourcesThe 2nd edition is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats: the e-book and Science Trove offer a mobile experience and convenient access along with additional datasets, links to bioinformatics and programming tools, flashcard glossary, functionality tools, navigation features and links that offer extra learning support.
