Data Analysis Tools for DNA Microarrays
Editorial Reviews
Review
I really like Draghici's book. … The biology and statistics are kept at a good level for the intended audience. … Anyone who uses microarray data should certainly own a copy.
- Technometrics, February 2005, Vol. 47, No. 1
The book by Draghici is an excellent choice to be used as a textbook for a graduate level bioinformatics course. This well-written book with two accompanying CD-ROMs will create much needed enthusiasm among statisticians.
-Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, Vol 74
I really like Draghici's book. As the author explains in the Preface, the book is intended to serve both the statistician who knows very little about DNA microarrays and the biologist who has no expertise in data analysis. The author lays out a study plan for the statistician that excludes 5 of the 17 chapters (4-8). These chapters present the basics of statistical distributions, estimation, hypothesis testing, ANOVA, and experimental design. What that leaves for the statistician is the three-chapter primer on microarrays and image processing, plus all of the data analysis tools specific to the microarray situation.
Book Description
Data Analysis Tools for DNA Microarrays helps you meet the challenges of DNA research, by presenting the basics of microarray technology and more importantly, the specific problems the technology poses from the data analysis perspective. It also introduces the fundamentals of statistics and the details of the techniques most useful in microarray data analysis. The book is richly illustrated in full color and comes with a CD-ROM containing trial trial versions of software for image and data analysis.
