Description

General descriptionBioinformatics promises to revolutionize the process of drug discovery and development. This book provides an application-oriented overview of this technology. In addition, the state-of-the-art in bioinformatics is evaluated from a global view by introducing real application scenarios such as genome projects that require the use of a whole set of bioinformatics tools. The knowledge on bioinformatics presented enables readers to go beyond a mere push-button approach to using bioinformatics software and interpreting the data generated, but also to assess the potential and limitations of today's bioinformatics software and future challenges.
