About the Authors
  • Providing genome-informed personalized treatment is a goal of modern medicine. Identifying new translational targets in nucleic acid characterizations is an important step toward that goal. The information tsunami produced by such genome-scale investigations is stimulating parallel developments in statistical methodology and inference, analytical frameworks, and computational tools. Within the context of genomic medicine and with a strong focus on cancer research, this book describes the integration of high-throughput bioinformatics data from multiple platforms to inform our understanding of the functional consequences of genomic alterations. This includes rigorous and scalable methods for simultaneously handling diverse data types such as gene expression array, miRNA, copy number, methylation, and next-generation sequencing data. This material is written for statisticians who are interested in modeling and analyzing high-throughput data. Chapters by experts in the field offer a thorough introduction to the biological and technical principles behind multiplatform high-throughput experimentation.

    • Describes statistical methods and computational tools for the integration and analysis of different types of molecular data generated in biomedical research studies
    • Written for statisticians interested in modeling and analyzing molecular data who are not necessarily experts in this area
    • Has a strong focus on applications in cancer research that further the development of personalized medicine by taking into account specific clinical and genetic information for each patient
