Bioinformatics: Concepts, Technology and Methodology - by Daniel McGuire (Hardcover)

About the Book

The field of bioinformatics is significant for the understanding of biological data through the development of methods and software tools. It aids in the sequencing and annotation of genomes and mutations, development of gene ontologies, analysis of gene and protein expression and regulation. It also plays a crucial role in cataloguing the biological pathways and networks, simulation and modeling of DNA, RNA and proteins. Pattern recognition, machine learning algorithms and visualization are commonly applied in bioinformatics to conduct these studies. Research in this field focuses in the areas of gene finding, drug design, drug discovery, protein-protein interactions, modeling of evolution, etc. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of bioinformatics, which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. It attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under this discipline and how such concepts have practical applications. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with this field will benefit alike from this book.
