Discovering Genomics, Proteomics, and Bioinformatics is the first textbook which combines integrated web exercises with a problem–solving approach to train students in basic hands–on genomic analysis. The authors present global problems, then provide the tools of genomic analysis to help students dissect the answer, thus encouraging critical–thinking skills. Microarray images and all art and figures from the text are available on the free art CD–ROM. The Discovering Genomics, Proteomics, and Bioinformatics Companion Website www.geneticsplace.com helps students learn about cutting–edge research and visualize complex processes. This integrated learning package sets the standard for material in the exciting new field of genomics.
