DESCRIPTION:
His research interests include multivariate data analysis, data integration and machine learning, particularly applied to proteomics and metabolomics. Ian Shadforth holds a degree in Natural Sciences from Cambridge, and an Engineering Doctorate in Bioinformatics from Cranfield University. Conrad is now primarily focussed on research, with collaborators including leading academics and blue chip companies. . He is currently a project leader at LifeScan Scotland Ltd, a division of Johnson & Johnson. About the Author Conrad Bessant is the founder and head of the Cranfield University Bioinformatics Group, and designed the University's popular MSc in Applied Bioinformatics, which has been running since 2002. He is now working as a developer in the High Throughput Gene Targeting group at the Wellc
He is now working as a developer in the High Throughput Gene Targeting group at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, helping to develop and maintain web-based tracking, monitoring and reporting systems for the laboratory. He is focussed on the field of diabetes management, including the provision of new tools and educational programmes as well as applying his research expertise to biomarker discovery and related concepts.

Having worked through the book, the reader should have the necessary core skills to develop computational solutions for their specific research programmes. Building Bioinformatics Solutions provides a comprehensive introduction to this methodology, explaining how to acquire and use the most popular development tools, how to apply them to build processing pipelines, and how to make the results available through visualizations and web-based services for deployment either locally or via the Internet. These industry standard open source tools form the core of many bioinformatics projects, both in academia and industry. The methodologies introduced are platform independent, and all the examples that feature have been tested on Windows, Linux and Mac OS. This advanced textbook is suitable for graduate students and researche
Great Book! Responsible Authors! This is a great book, I am very satisfied with it.In fact, this book combines the most popular tools in bioinformatics:Perl, R and MySQL.Some of us may be expert for one or two of these tools. But how to systemically to use them together, this book gives answers.It aslo gives direction of how to go further if you want to master one of these tools.Plus,it has a lot of practical examples which you can easily transform for your own work.And I must say the authors are very responsibe. They answered my questions promptly and in details. I really app. Excellent SB I have formal education in Bioinformatics, however applied Bioinformatics is somewhat different. This book is a great stepping stone for those who want to work as Bioinformatics analysts, developers etc.. "Very nice book" according to magnolia. This is a very nice bioinformatics book. Concise and touching the point. Covers the very basic and practical skills on developing computational skills on biological question. After reading this book, I'm almost equipped the right tools, skills and directionality for practical research problems and more thoughtful organizations on my database. Highly recommend for everyone!
