In Clinical Bioinformatics Second Edition leading experts in the field provide a series of
articles focusing on software applications used to translate information into outcomes of
clinical relevance. Recent developments in omics such as increasingly sophisticated analytic
platforms allowing changes in diagnostic strategies from the traditional focus on single or
small number of analytes to what might be possible when large numbers or all analytes are
measured are now impacting patient care. Covering such topics as gene discovery gene function
(microarrays) DNA sequencing online approaches and resources and informatics in clinical
practice this volume concisely yet thoroughly explores this cutting-edge subject. Written in
the successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format chapters include introductions to
their respective topics lists of the necessary materials and reagents step-by-step readily
reproducible protocols and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative
and easily accessible Clinical Bioinformatics Second Edition serves as an ideal guide for
scientists and health professionals working in genetics and genomics.
