What's Inside

Nine parts spanning foundations, individual omics disciplines, integration strategies, and the future of AI-driven analysis.

Part I

Omics Data Science Foundation

The shared concepts, patterns, and analytical workflows that underpin every omics discipline covered in this book.

Part II

Transcriptomics

RNA-seq pipelines for model and non-model species – from raw counts to biological insight.

Part III

Biological Networks

Network construction, visualization, and interpretation – from molecular interactions to systems-level biology.

Part IV

Proteomics

Quantitative proteomics workflows – from data processing and normalization to functional interpretation.

Part V

Metabolomics

Targeted and untargeted metabolomics – from LC-MS/MS data processing to pathway-level interpretation.

Part VI

Microbiome

Marker gene and shotgun metagenomics – from community profiling to ecological interpretation.

Part VII

Multi-Omics Integration

Knowledge-driven and model-driven strategies for combining multiple omics layers into unified biological insight.

Part VIII

Biomarker Discovery

Advanced machine learning in practice – from feature selection to validation strategies.

Part IX

Bioinformatics in the AI Era

How AI and emerging technologies are democratizing big data analytics to accelerate discovery in the life sciences.
