Human Evolution: Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies

Cambridge University Press, 2013

Controversy over human evolution remains widespread. However, the human genome project and genetic sequencing of many other species have provided myriad precise and unambiguous genetic markers that establish our evolutionary relationships with other mammals. Human Evolution: Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies identifies and explains these...

An Introduction to Human Molecular Genetics: Mechanisms of Inherited Diseases

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

The Second Edition of this internationally acclaimed text expands its coverage of the molecular genetics of inherited human diseases with the latest research findings and discoveries. Using a unique, systems-based approach, the text offers readers a thorough explanation of the gene discovery process and how defective genes are linked to...

Random Walks and Diffusions on Graphs and Databases: An Introduction (Springer Series in Synergetics)

Springer, 2011

Most networks and databases that humans have to deal with contain large, albeit finite number of units. Their structure, for maintaining functional consistency of the components, is essentially not random and calls for a precise quantitative description of relations between nodes (or data units) and all network components. This book is an...

Bioinformatics: A Practical Guide to the Analysis of Genes and Proteins, Second Edition

John Wiley & Sons, 2001

"In this book, Andy Baxevanis and Francis Ouellette . . . have undertaken the difficult task of organizing the knowledge in this field in a logical progression and presenting it in a digestible form. And they have done an excellent job. This fine text will make a major impact on biological research and, in turn, on progress in biomedicine. We...

Contemporary Marketing

South-Western College, 2007

Products often begin their lives as something extraordinary, and as they grow they continue to

evolve. The most successful products in the marketplace are those that know their strengths and have

branded and marketed those strengths to form a passionate emotional connection with loyal...

Macrophages: A Practical Approach

Oxford University Press, 2000

Macrophages are an important part of the immune response and are characterized by their ability to phagocytose foreign matter. However the difficulties involved in macrophage isolation mean they are some of the body's least explored cells. Macrophage Methodology describes how to isolate moderate to high yields of viable cells...

The Adrenergic Receptors in the 21st Century (The Receptors)

Humana Press, 2005

Our understanding of adrenergic function has advanced considerably in the 15 years since three adrenergic receptor books were published in The Receptors series. In the late 1980s, many of the adrenergic subtypes had not yet been cloned. Most of the studies during that time focused on traditional pharmacological approaches in...

Nutrigenomics and Nutrigenetics in Functional Foods and Personalized Nutrition

CRC Press, 2013

While functional foods have become a reasonably well-established concept, personalized nutrition is still treated with skepticism by many. The recognition that people would have different nutrient requirements, or perceive foods in different ways, raises several concernsâsome real, some not so real. Nutrigenomics and...

Lysosomal Storage Disorders: A Practical Guide

John Wiley & Sons, 2013

Awareness of lysomal storage disorders needs to be raised and there is very substantial pharmaceutical interest to do so. The disorders are often viewed as obscurities but in fact they are treatable. Enzyme replacement therapy is available for four of the disorders and will be available for a further three disorders in the course of the next...

Fuzzy Systems in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)

Springer, 2009

Biological systems are inherently stochastic and uncertain. Thus, research in bioinformatics, biomedical engineering and computational biology has to deal with a large amount of uncertainties.

Fuzzy logic has shown to be a powerful tool in capturing different uncertainties in engineering systems. In recent years, fuzzy logic based modeling and...

Grouping Multidimensional Data: Recent Advances in Clustering

Springer, 2006

Clustering is a fundamental problem that has numerous applications in many disciplines. Clustering techniques are used to discover natural groups in datasets and to identify abstract structures that might reside there, without having any background knowledge of the characteristics of the data. They have been used in various areas including...

Biology Of Genetic Dominance (Molecular Biology Intelligence Unit)

Landes Bioscience, 2006

The word dominance, in the context of genetics, has been used for long time applied to characters or to alleles. A dominant character masks the expression of an alternative form. This loose definition would even apply when these alternatives are not determined by alleles of the same locus. In turn, a dominant allele refers to an alternative version...
