GET FULLY UP-TO-DATE ON BIOINFORMATICS-THE TECHNOLOGY OF THE 21ST CENTURY
Bioinformatics showcases the latest developments in the field along with all the foundational information you'll need. It provides in-depth coverage of a wide range of autoimmune disorders and detailed analyses of suffix trees, plus late-breaking advances regarding biochips and genomes.
Featuring helpful gene-finding algorithms, Bioinformatics offers key information on sequence alignment, HMMs, HMM applications, protein secondary structure, microarray techniques, and drug discovery and development. Helpful diagrams accompany mathematical equations throughout, and exercises appear at the end of each chapter to facilitate self-evaluation.
This thorough, up-to-date resource features:
Worked-out problems illustrating concepts and models
End-of-chapter exercises for self-evaluation
Material based on student feedback
Illustrations that clarify difficult math problems
A list of bioinformatics-related websites
Bioinformatics covers:
Sequence representation and alignment
Hidden Markov models
Applications of HMMs
Gene finding
Protein secondary structure prediction
Microarray techniques
Drug discovery and development
Internet resources and public domain databases
Dr. Kal Renganathan Sharma PE (Prairie View, Texas) received his BTech in chemical engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai, India and MS and PhD in chemical engineering from West Virginia University, Morgantown. He spent two terms at the department of computer science at Dartmouth College and some time under Ramana Reddy, Director of Concurrent Engineering Research Center, West Virginia University, Morgantown. His postdoctoral research work was with R. Shankar Subramanian, formerly chair and professor, chemical engineering at Clarkson University. He performed some probabilistic modeling while he was at Monsanto Plastics. Dr. Sharma has authored 5 books, 10 journal articles, 440 conference papers, 53 preprints, 37 invited lectures/seminars, and 21 others. He developed the curriculum and syllabus for the M.Tech. in Bioinformatics program when he served as Professor and Head of Department at Vellore Engineering College, India. Dr. Sharma has held a number of other positions including: Principal, Sakthi Engineering College, Chennai, India; Professor, SASTRA University, Thanjavur, India; President, Independent Institute of Technology, Hanover, NH; Adjunct Assistant Professor, Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, West Virginia University, Morgantown; Visiting Research Assistant Professor, Applied and Engineering Statistics, George Mason University, Fairfax. He has instructed more than 1500 students. Dr. Sharma is currently Adjunct Professor with the college of engineering at Prairie View A & M University.
