Introduction to Computational Genomics

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Are we related to Neanderthals? Where did SARS come from? Which part of our genome is evolving the fastest? How does one detect genes borrowed from other organisms? These are some of the questions that can be answered by statistical and computational analysis of genetic data, and are the vehicle for this self-contained and entertaining introduction to computational genomics, based on a successful course taught at UC Davis. The case-studies approach with Matlab demos provides a painless and enjoyable way to learn how to analyze genomic data first-hand.
