Book excerpt: The development of products or processes by using or modifying biological systems and living organisms for specific use falls under the scientific domain of biotechnology. It is a multidisciplinary field that integrates the studies of genomics, applied immunology, recombinant gene techniques, pharmaceutical therapies and diagnostic tools. Its applications are prevalent in a number of significant domains such as agriculture, health care, industries and environment. Bioinformatics is a branch of biotechnology. It is concerned with the application of statistics and computing to develop methods and software for analyzing biological data. The study of the genetic basis of disease, genetic diversity in populations and unique adaptations is possible because of the application of bioinformatics. It aids in furthering the studies in experimental molecular biology, genetics, genomics, etc. This book unravels the recent studies in the fields of biotechnology and bioinformatics. It also elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary manner. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with these fields will benefit alike from this book.

This book was released on 2012-01-15 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book entitled "Applied Computational Biology and Statistics in Biotechnology and Bioinformatics" is aimed to cater to the growing demand of academia, researchers and commercial ventures. Altogether there are forty four chapters divided into the following broad sections like 1. Bioinformatics, Genomics and Proteomics, 2. Phylogeny 3. Drug Design and Epigenomics 4. Advanced Computational Tools and Techniques 5. Statistical methods for computational biology, data mining and visualization 6. Socio Economics and Ethics. This book presents the foundations of key problems in computational molecular biology and bioinformatics. It contains basic molecular biology concepts, tools, techniques and ways to measure sequence similarity, presents simple applications of searching sequence databases. After introducing methods for aligning multiple biological sequences and genomes, the text explores applications of the phylogenetic tree, methods for comparing phylogenetic trees, the problem of gene expression and motif finding. Interestingly, it is attempted to introduce computational biology without formulas that presents the biological and computational ideas in a relatively simple manner. It focuses on computational and statistical principles applied to genomes, and introduces the computational statistics that are crucial for understanding and visualization of problems. This makes the material accessible to Statistician and computer scientists without biological training, as well as to biologists with limited background in Statistics and computer science. Furthermore one chapter has been exclusively devoted to computational biology and computational statistics as applied in biotechnology illustrated with methodology, application and interpretation of results. More than four hundred figures, illustrations and diagrams reinforce concepts and present key results from the primary literature that will be very much useful to grasp on the subject, visualize the output and make right interpretation of the result. The book will be useful for all those working in Biotechnology sector in general and particularly researchers working in the laboratories of ICAR, CSIR, SAU's and many more institutions engaged R&D activities.

Book excerpt: Every researcher in genomics and proteomics now has access to public domain databases containing literally billions of data entries. However, without the right analytical tools, and an understanding of the biological significance of the data, cataloging and interpreting the molecular evolutionary processes buried in those databases is difficult, if not impossible. The first editon of Bioinformatics Basics: Applications in Biological Science and Medicine answered the scientific community’s need to learn about the bioinformatic tools available to them. That the book continues to be a best seller clearly demonstrates the authors’ ability to provide scientists with the understanding to apply those tools to their research. Currently, it is being used as a reference text at MIT and other prestigious institutions. Recognizing the important advances in bioinformatices since their last edition, Buehler and Rashidi have produced a completely revised and updated version of their pioneering work. To allow scientists to utilize significant databases from around the world, the authors consider some fresh approaches to data analysis while identifying computing techniques that will help them manage the massive flow of information their science requires. New to the second edition: Provides a more detailed view of the field while continuing to focus on the global concept approach that popularized the first edition. Offers the latest approaches to data analysis Introduces recent developments in genomics, microarrays, proteomics, genome mapping, and more. Adds two new sections offering insights from other experts in bioinformatics. Bioinformatics Basics is not intended to serve as a training manual for bioinformaticians. Instead, it’s designed to help the general scientific community gain a thorough understanding of what bioinformatics tools are available to them and the best ways these tools can be utilized and adapted to meet the needs of their specific interests and projects.
