DNA technologies are explained, with emphasis on the modern techniques that are revolutionizing the use of genetic information in medicine and indicating the role of genetics in common diseases. Epigenetics and non-coding RNA are covered in-depth as are genetic approaches to treatment and prevention, including pharmacogenomics, genetic testing, and personalized medicine. A dedicated chapter charts the latest insights into the molecular basis of cancers, cancer genomics and novel approaches to cancer detection. Coverage of genetic testing at the level of genes, chromosomes and genomes has been significantly expanded and updated. Extra prominence has been given to additional genomic analyses, ethical aspects, and novel therapeutic approaches. Various case studies illustrate selected clinical applications.Key FeaturesComprehensive and integrated account of how genetics and genomics affect the entire spectrum of human health and diseaseExquisite artwork illuminates the key concepts and mechanismsSummary points at the end of each chapter help to consolidate learningFor each chapter, an abundance of further reading to help provide the reader with direction for further studyInclusive online question bank to test understandingStandard boxes summarizing certain key principles in geneticsClinical boxes summarizing selected case studies, pathogenesis mechanisms or novel therapies for selected diseasesThis book is equally suited for newcomers to the field as well as for engineers and scientists that have basic knowledge in this field but are interested in obtaining more information about specific future applications..Product DetailsPublisher : CRC Press; 2nd edition (October 21, 2022)Language : EnglishPaperback : 534 pagesISBN-10 : 0367490811ISBN-13 : 978-0367490812ISBN-13 : 9780367490812eText ISBN: 9781000579376
