Description

????This volume provides�an interdisciplinary perspective of�applying Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to cancer research. It aims�to systematically introduce the concept of NGS, a variety of NGS platforms and their practical implications in cancer biology.This unique and comprehensive text�will integrate the unprecedented NGS technology into various cancer�research projects�as opposed to most books which offer�a detailed�description of the technology. This volume will�present true experimental results with concrete data processing pipelines, discuss the bottleneck of each platform for real project in cancer research.�In additional, single cancer cell sequencing as the proof of concept will be introduced in this book, along with cutting-edge information provided�will help the intended audience to develop a comprehensive understanding of the�NGS technology and practical whole genome sequencing data analysis and rapidly translate into their own research, specifically in the field of cancer biology.Typham this is the title: Next Generation Sequencing in Cancer Research Volume 1: Decoding the Cancer Genome
