Integrative Omics: Concept, Methodology and Application provides a holistic and integrated view of defining and applying network approaches, integrative tools, and methods to solve problems for the rationalization of genotype to phenotype relationships. The reference provides systemic ‘step-by-step’ coverage that begins with basic concepts from Omic to Multi Integrative Omics approaches followed by applications and emerging and future trends. All areas of Omics are covered, including biological databases, sequence alignment, pharmacogenomics, nutrigenomics and microbial omics, integrated omics for Food Science and Identification of genes associated with disease, clinical data integration and data warehousing, translational omics, technology policy, and society research. This book covers recent concepts, methodologies, advancements in technologies and is also well-suited for researchers from both academic and industry background, undergraduate and graduate students who are mainly working in the area of computational systems biology, integrative omics and translational science.
