Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Computational thinking is increasingly gaining importance in modern biology, due to the unprecedented scale at which data is nowadays produced. Bridging the cultural gap between the biological and computational sciences, this book serves as an accessible introduction to computational concepts for students in the life sciences. It focuses on teaching algorithmic and logical thinking, rather than just the use of existing bioinformatics tools or programming. Topics are presented from a biological point of view, to demonstrate how computational approaches can be used to solve problems in biology such as biological image processing, regulatory networks, and sequence analysis. The book contains a range of pedagogical features to aid understanding, including real-world examples, in-text exercises, end-of-chapter problems, colour-coded Python code, and 'code explained' boxes. User-friendly throughout, Computational Thinking for Life Scientists promotes the thinking skills and self-efficacy required for any modern biologist to adopt computational approaches in their research with confidence. Aimed at life science students, and of interest to academic researchers, this book bridges the gap between the biological and computational sciences. It explains fundamental computational concepts and contains real-world examples focused on developing algorithmic and logical thinking skills. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781316647592
