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.
This book
- Is the first genomics textbook written for students that focuses on the process of doing genomic
analysis and thinking from a genomics perspective.
- Is based on an enquiry approach gives students hands€on practice and builds problem solving skills.
Students learn to use databases and how to extract pertinent information.
- Contains Math Minutes that supply brief tutorials that reveal the math behind the biology and illustrate
how investigators apply math in solving specific biology problems.
- Contains discovery questions that appear throughout each chapter and ask students to consider
what is happening in a particular example or case study, thus engaging students in taking a genomic approach
to real€world problems.
- Contains case studies and real€world examples provide a context for understanding the experiments and results.
- Contains Integrated multimedia and web resources that direct students to a full methods index, relevant web
links, and animations that allow them to research and analyze real genomics data as they work their way through
each chapter. Icons in the text alert students to these media tools.
