Bioinformatics with R Cookbook

In Detail

Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that develops and improves upon the methods for storing, retrieving, organizing, and analyzing biological data. R is the primary language used for handling most of the data analysis work done in the domain of bioinformatics.

Bioinformatics with R Cookbook is a hands-on guide that provides you with a number of recipes offering you solutions to all the computational tasks related to bioinformatics in terms of packages and tested codes.

With the help of this book, you will learn how to analyze biological data using R, allowing you to infer new knowledge from your data coming from different types of experiments stretching from microarray to NGS and mass spectrometry.

Approach

This book is an easy-to-follow, stepwise guide to handle real life Bioinformatics problems. Each recipe comes with a detailed explanation to the solution steps. A systematic approach, coupled with lots of illustrations, tips, and tricks will help you as a reader grasp even the trickiest of concepts without difficulty.

Who this book is for

This book is ideal for computational biologists and bioinformaticians with basic knowledge of R programming, bioinformatics and statistics. If you want to understand various critical concepts needed to develop your computational models in Bioinformatics, then this book is for you. Basic knowledge of R is expected.
