RNA Processing (eBook, PDF)

Disease and Genome-wide Probing

Produktbeschreibung

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) binding proteins currently number in the thousands and defects in their function are at the heart of diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration. RNA binding proteins have become implicated in the intricate control of surprisingly diverse biological settings, such as circadian rhythm, stem cell self-renewal, oncogenesis and germ cell development. This book surveys a range of genome-wide and systems approaches to studying RNA binding proteins, the importance of RNA binding proteins in development, cancer and circadian rhythm.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Gene Yeo is a scientist, entrepreneur, inventor and expert in the area of RNA, genomics and neurological diseases.  Dr. Yeo obtained his BS in Chemical Engineering and a BA in Economics from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He has a MA in Business Administration from the Rady School of Management at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD).  Dr. Yeo earned his Ph.D. in Computational Neuroscience from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.  Using comparative genomics and statistical learning theory Dr. Yeo pioneered new computational approaches to attack the problem of splicing and splicing-mediated gene regulation.  In 2008, Dr. Yeo was appointed an Assistant Professor in the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine at UCSD.  In 2011, Dr. Yeo was awarded the Alfred P Sloan Fellowship in recognition of his work in computational molecular biology. Dr. Yeo is also an Adjunct Professor at the National University of Singapore and avisiting researcher at the Molecular Engineering Laboratory under Nobel Laureate Sydney Brenner's auspices.
