TY - BOOK AU - Caroline,StClair AU - Visick,Jonathan TI - Exploring bioinformatics U1 - 572/.330285 PY - 2015/// CY - Burlington, MA PB - Jones & Bartlett Learning KW - Bioinformatics N1 - Title from title screen N2 - Thoroughly revised and updated, this edition is intended for an introductory course in bioinformatics at the undergraduate level. Through hands-on projects, students are introduced to current biological problems and then explore and develop bioinformatic solutions to these issues. Each chapter presents a key problem, provides basic biological concepts, introduces computational techniques to address the problem, and guides students through the use of existing web-based tools and software solutions. This progression prepares students to tackle the On-Your-Own Project, where they develop their own software solutions. Topics such as antibiotic resistance, genetic disease, and genome sequencing provide context and relevance to capture student interest. -- UR - http://www.columbia.edu/cgi-bin/cul/resolve?clio11040681 ER -
