Zu jeder Methode werden Online-Tools im Internet oder freie Software angegeben.Das Buch richtet sich an Anwender und Einsteiger in die Bioinformatik, speziell Studenten und Forscher, die sich mit der Sequenzanalyse auseinandersetzen müssen.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 164 pp. Deutsch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -One hundred years ago (1904) Hermann Minkowski [58] posed a problem: to re 2 construct an even function I on the sphere 8 from knowledge of the integrals MI (C) = fc Ids over big circles C. Paul Funk found an explicit reconstruction formula for I from data of big circle integrals. Johann Radon studied a similar problem for the Eu clidean plane and space. The interest in reconstruction problems like Minkowski Funk's and Radon's has grown tremendously in the last four decades, stimulated by the spectrum of new modalities of image reconstruction. These are X-ray, MRI, gamma and positron radiography, ultrasound, seismic tomography, electron mi croscopy, synthetic radar imaging and others. The physical principles of these methods are very different, however their mathematical models and solution meth ods have very much in common. The umbrella name reconstructive integral geom etryl is used to specify the variety of these problems and methods. The objective of this book is to present in a uniform way the scope of well known and recent results and methods in the reconstructive integral geometry. We do not touch here the problems arising in adaptation of analytic methods to numerical reconstruction algorithms. We refer to the books [61], [62] which are focused on these problems. Various aspects of interplay of integral geometry and differential equations are discussed in Chapters 7 and 8. The results presented here are partially new.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 180 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Since the discovery of the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) more than 15 years ago, there has been an unpredicted explosion of both basic scientific discoveries and clinical reports on their use from institutions all over the world. The potent effica cy of BMPs in almost all crucial developmental events as well as during regenera tion of various organs such as bone, kidney, brain, liver, heart etc. , has positioned BMPs at the center of scientific interest. Many of these aspects are covered in this new PIR volume. Their role in development, biology, signal transduction, kidney regeneration, eNS functions, craniofacial skeleton reconstruction, joint and carti lage repair, long bone non-unions and acute fractures, and spinal fusion is reviewed by experts in the field. For the first time, the role of BMPs in carcinogenesis has been reviewed to provide a rationale for applying their biology in patients with bone tumors. The optimism resulting from safe and successful treatment with BMPs for various skeletal malformations of more than 10,000 patients worldwide has opened new avenues for exploring other indications for their use. The next big challenge for bringing BMPs to the benefit ofmankind is in regenerating articular cartilage defects and rescuing patients with acute and chronic renal failure. The volume editors thank all authors for the rapid preparation of their chapters in order that the book remains up-to-date for readers with specific interest in the field of regenerative medicine.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The Fourth Congress of the International Society for Analysis, its Applications and Computation (ISAAC) was held at York University from August 11, 2003 to August 16, 2003. It was supported by the Academic Initiative Fund of the Faculty of Arts, NSERC grants from some members of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and the Office of the Vice-President Academic of York University. In spite of two SARS outbreaks in Toronto in 2003, the ISAAC Congress was held as scheduled and was well attended by mathematicians from all over the world. There were nine plenary lectures and seventeen special sessions representing most major themes in analysis. Among these were two plenary lectures and a special session on pseudo-differential operators organized by Ryuichi Ashino of Osaka Kyoiku University, Paolo Boggiatto of Universite di Torino and M. W. Wong of York University. In the summer of 2003, M. W. Wong had the idea of putting together the lectures on pseudo-differential operators in a volume to be published in a series that advocates operator theory and its applications. In early August of 2003, when Israel Gohberg of Tel Aviv University was consulted about the possibility of publishing a volume entitled 'Advances in Pseudo-Differential Operators' in his series 'Operator Theory: Advances and Applications', he replied immediately endorsing the proposal enthusiastically.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 248 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Philippe Bénilan was a most original and charismatic mathematician who had a deep and decisive impact on the theory of nonlinear evolution equations. The present volume is dedicated to him and contains research papers written by highly distinguished mathematicians. They are all related to Bénilan's work and reflect the present state of this most active field. The contributions cover a wide range of nonlinear and linear equations. Special topics are Hamilton-Jacobi equations, the porous medium equation, reaction diffusion systems, integro-differential equations and visco-elasticity, maximal regularity for elliptic and parabolic equations, and the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator.Also in this volume, the legendary work of Bénilan-Brézis on Thomas-Fermi theory is published for the first time.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 824 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Wie berechnet man multiple Alignments Wie nutzt man eine Datenbank, um die mühsam im Labor ermittelten Sequenzen effektiv zu analysieren Und welche Datenbank ist überhaupt am besten geeignet Locker und leicht verständlich geschrieben führt dieser Leitfaden in die Geheimnisse der Bioinformatik ein, ohne dass man als Naturwissenschaftler gleich Informatik im Nebenfach belegt haben muss. Schwerpunkt des Buches sind die Grundlagen und verschiedenen Möglichkeiten der Sequenzanalyse. Das Buch beginnt mit einer Einführung in die wichtigen Sequenzdatendatenbanken am NCBI und EMBL sowie in die wachsende Zahl der Motivdatenbanken. Anschließend werden die einfachsten Methoden des paarweisen Sequenzvergleiches in globalen und lokalen Alignments beschrieben sowie die gängigsten heuristischen Verfahren der Datenbanksuche (FASTA und BLAST). Multiple Alignments, Substitutionsmatrizen und die Berechnung phylogenetischer Bäume werden dem Leser nahe gebracht. Neu hinzugekommen sind auch Erläuterungen der Prinzipien der Genomanalyse und der gängigsten Algorithmen zur Genvorhersage. Zu jeder Methode werden Online-Tools im Internet oder freie Software angegeben. Der Leser wird so in die Lage versetzt, die beschriebenen Methoden selbstständig nachzuvollziehen. Die Autorin selbst ist Molekularbiologin und in der Bioinformatik-Branche tätig. Als ehemalige Betreuerin eines Bioinformatik-Kurses weiss sie aus eigener Erfahrung, auf welche Informationen es ankommt, um schnell und zielorientiert zu den gewünschten Ergebnissen zu gelangen. Das Buch richtet sich in erster Linie an Anwender und Einsteiger in die Bioinformatik. Angesprochen sind vor allem Studenten und Forscher aus allen Gebieten der Naturwissenschaften, die sich in Studium oder Beruf mit der Sequenzanalyse auseinandersetzen müssen. Gleichzeitig ist dieses Buch auch ein Leitfaden für all diejenigen, die die aufgeführten Methoden zwar regelmässig benutzen, aber noch nie die Zeit gefunden haben, sich mit den Grundlagen auseinanderzusetzen. 164 pp. Deutsch.
