Transducing the Genome

"In Transducing the Genome, geneticist Gary Zweiger provides us with our most lucid explanation yet of the significance of the Human Genome Project and the dramatic paradigm shift that it has engendered in the life sciences. He explains how the marriage of information technology and biology necessitated by the race to sequence the human genome has led to the emergence of genomics, a revolutionary new science that provides unprecedented access to the processes of life. Going beyond the traditional one-gene-one-trait approach, genomics transduces biological data into digital information, which then can be analyzed and manipulated using powerful computer algorithms, data mining tools, and other advanced information technologies to reveal meaningful patterns among vast networks of millions of life's molecules."--BOOK JACKET.
