| Summary |
" ... With this new edition the three key markets, research scientists, clinicians, and genetic counselors will all continue to benefit from the content. The research community will find great value in the coverage of genomics, animal models, and diagnostic methods along with a a better understanding of the clinical implications. Clinicians will rely on the coverage of the basic science of neurogenetics and the methods for evaluating patients with biochemical abnormalities or gene mutations. And genetic counselors will find this a comprehensive tutorial reference on the latest advances in the science, with links to genetic testing for specific diseases |
