Clinical Genomics: Practical Applications for Adult Patient Care

Clinical Genomics provides an overview of the various next-generation sequencing
technologies that are currently used in clinical diagnostic laboratories. It presents key
bioinformatic challenges and the solutions that must be addressed by clinical genomicists and
genomic pathologists, such as specific pipelines for identification of the full range of variants
that are clinically important.This book is also focused on the challenges of diagnostic
interpretation of NGS results in a clinical setting. The book in your hand is the outcome of
demand across the country on huge level.There has been deliberate effort on the part of author
to cover-up various aspects cancer genetics and genomics such as genetic instability in cancer,
gene expression profiling assays in early stag breast cancer tumour suppressor gene cancer,
identifying and testing for hereditary susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancer etc.Allthe facts
have been illustrated in a very incisive way. This book is aimed at providing readers brief
informationaboutthevariousaspectsandapplicationsofclinical genomics.
