Genomics of Model Organisms

The aim of this book is to explore the foundations and scientific advances in the field of genomics and molecular biology. It is aimed at students researchers and biology professionals highlighting the key concepts that shape our understanding of model organisms genomics concepts DNA polymorphism and genome analysis.Through a pedagogical and rigorous approach this book traces the evolution of scientific knowledge from the first animal models to advanced genome engineering and bioinformatics techniques. Spectacular advances in genome sequencing and analysis technologies have opened up unprecedented perspectives in biomedical research gene therapy and personalized medicine. As such this book is part of an approach to the transmission of knowledge offering readers an accessible synthesis of the tools and concepts of modern genetics.
