Overview

Modern bioinformatics encompasses a broad and ever-changing range of activities involved with the management and analysis of data from molecular biology experiments. Despite the diversity of activities and applications, the basic methodology and core tools needed to tackle bioinformatics problems is common to many projects. Building Bioinformatics Solutions provides a comprehensive introduction to this methodology, explaining how to select the appropriate analytical tools and databases, how to use them to build processing pipelines, and how to make the results available through visualisations and web-based services for deployment either locally or via the Internet.
