High-Throughput Image Reconstruction and Analysis (Rao, A.R. and Cecchi, G.A.; 2009) [Book Reviews]

This book explores how the coupling of high-performance computing (HPC) with automated imaging techniques can impact and further our understanding of complex biological systems and provides an integrated view of technology-driven capability in science, where HPC is used beneficially to create and analyze complex models gathered from large biological data sets. The book consists of four sections and 14 chapters. Each chapter was prepared by selected subject expert teams active in the research of respective topics with varying degree of balance between theoretic presentation and real-world case summation and overview. Overall, the book is quite extensive. It would make an excellent reference for bioinformatics or biomedical engineering graduate students, cell biologists, microscope manufacturers, HPC developers, and drug discovery professionals interested in learning about new perspectives in technology-driven clinical product development approach.
