Bioinformatics; A Practical Guide to Next Generation Sequencing Data Analysis 1st Edition

This comprehensive guide offers up-to-date content on next-generation sequencing (NGS) applications, making it ideal for a full-semester course.
Designed for both researchers and graduate students, the book goes beyond surface-level instruction to deliver in-depth analysis and practical guidance. It covers essential NGS topics including data preprocessing, genome assembly, variant identification, gene expression profiling, epigenetics, and metagenomics.

Rather than treating analysis workflows as opaque “black boxes,” the book breaks down each step, equipping readers with the scientific and technical foundation needed to approach NGS data with clarity and confidence. While well-suited as a primary resource for researchers working with sequencing data, it also functions effectively as a textbook for biology and bioscience instructors and students.
