Microarray Bioinformatics
內容描述
This book is a comprehensive guide to all of the mathematics, statistics and
computing you will need to successfully operate DNA microarray experiments. It
is written for researchers, clinicians, laboratory heads and managers, from both
biology and bioinformatics backgrounds, who work with, or who intend to work
with microarrays. The book covers all aspects of microarray bioinformatics,
giving you the tools to design arrays and experiments, to analyze your data, and
to share your results with your organisation or with the international
community. There are chapters covering sequence databases, oligonucleotide
design, experimental design, image processing, normalisation, identifying
differentially expressed genes, clustering, classification and data standards.
The book is based on the highly successful Microarray Bioinformatics course at
Oxford University, and therefore is ideally suited for teaching the subject at
postgraduate or professional level.
