Despite the diversity of activities and applications, the basic methodology and core tools needed to tackle bioinformatics problems is\u003cbr\u003ecommon to many projects. This unique book provides an invaluable introduction to three of the main tools used in the development of bioinformatics software - Perl, R and MySQL - and explains how these can be used together to tackle the complex data-driven challenges that typify modern biology. These\u003cbr\u003eindustry 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBuilding Bioinformatics Solutions is suitable for graduate students and researchers in the life sciences who wish to automate analyses or create their own databases and web-based tools. No prior knowledge of software development is assumed. Having worked through the book, the reader should have the\u003cbr\u003enecessary core skills to develop computational solutions for their specific research programmes. The book will also help the reader overcome the inertia associated with penetrating this field, and provide them with the confidence and understanding required to go on to develop more advanced\u003cbr\u003ebioinformatics skills.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Conrad Bessant, Darren Oakley, Ian Shadforth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 7.40w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199658565\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConrad Bessant, \u003cem\u003eProfessor of Bioinformatics, The School of Biological and Chemical Sciences, Queen Mary, University of London\u003c\/em\u003e, Darren Oakley, \u003cem\u003eSoftware Developer, Nature Publishing Group\u003c\/em\u003e, Ian Shadforth, \u003cem\u003eDirector of Integrated Health, Alere Inc.\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eConrad Bessant is Professor of Bioinformatics at Queen Mary, University of London.
