Clinical Genomics: Practical Applications for Adult Patient Care

Description

Clinical Genomics provides an overview of the various next-generation sequencing technologies that are currently used in clinical diagnostic laboratories. It presents key bioinformatic challenges and the solutions that must be addressed by clinical genomicists and genomic pathologists, such as specific pipelines for identification of the full range of variants that are clinically important.This book is also focused on the challenges of diagnostic interpretation of NGS results in a clinical setting. The book in your hand is the outcome of demand across the country on huge level. There has been deliberate effort on the part of author to cover-up various aspects cancer genetics and genomics such as genetic instability in cancer, gene expression profiling assays in early stag breast cancer tumour suppressor gene cancer, identifying and testing for hereditary susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancer etc. All the facts have been illustrated in a very incisive way. This book is aimed at providing readers brief information about the various aspects and applications of clinical genomics.
