Bioinformatics - From Genomes to Therapies


Description: Once again, Thomas Lengauer has succeeded in creating a comprehensive and immensely useful bioinformatics resource that meets even the high standards of professionals in the pharmaceutical and medical sector.

By extending the classical application areas of bioinformatics to the most recent approaches in analyzing molecular networks and in predicting molecular function, this handbook serves as a first-stop resource for every bioinformatics user in the life sciences. With contributions by more than 40 of the worlds leading bioinformaticians, it is unrivalled in terms of scientific authority and accuracy.

The best single information source available, written by professionals for professionals.

About the Author
Thomas Lengauer (born 1952) studied Mathematics and Informatics at Berlin and Stanford. After a brief stay at the Bell Laboratories, he held various academic positions at the universities of Saarbruecken, Paderborn, and Bonn. From 1992 to 2001, he headed the Institute for Algorithms and Scientific Computing at the GBM in Sankt Augustin (Germany). Since 2001, he is director at the Max-Planck-Institute for Informatics in Saarbruecken (Germany). Professor Lengauer has recently been awarded the Konrad-Zuse-Medal, the highest honor of the German Informatics Society.
