Gene-Environment Interaction Analysis: Methods in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

<p>Gene–environment (G × E) interaction analysis is a statistical method for clarifying G × E interactions applicable to a phenotype or a disease that is the result of interactions between genes and the environment. This book is the first to deal with the theme of G × E interaction analysis. It compiles and details cutting-edge research in bioinformatics and computational biology and will appeal to anyone involved in bioinformatics and computational biology.</p>

<p><strong>Sumiko Anno</strong> is currently an associate professor at the Shibaura Institute of Technology. She investigates public health issues using genetic engineering, remote sensing, and geographic information systems technologies. Dr. Anno established gene–environment (G × E) interaction analysis, which is used in a variety of scientific applications. In recent decades, there has been a great deal of scientific interest in her work on combining micro- and macro-information obtained from molecular, biological, and ecological studies. Her achievements have been rated highly, and she has received several awards from institutes in Japan and abroad.</p>
