In this new text, author Jonathan Pevsner, winner of the 2001 Johns Hopkins University ""Teacher of the Year"" award, explains problem-solving using bioinformatic approaches using real examples such as breast cancer, HIV-1, and retinal-binding protein throughout. His book includes 375 figures and over 170 tables. Each chapter includes: Problems, discussion of Pitfalls, Boxes explain
