These computational tools hold tremendous promise for advancing applied and basic science, from streamlining drug efficacy and safety testing, to increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of risk assessment for environmental chemicals. \u003ci\u003eComputational Toxicology\u003c\/i\u003e was conceived to provide both experienced and new biomedical and quantitative scientists with essential background, context, examples, useful tips, and an overview of current developments in the field. This two-volume set serves as a resource to help introduce and guide readers in the development and practice of these tools to solve problems and perform analyses in this area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDivided into six sections, \u003ci\u003eVolume II\u003c\/i\u003e covers a wide array of methodologies and topics. The volume begins by exploring the critical area of predicting toxicological and pharmacological endpoints, as well as approaches used in the analysis of gene, signaling, regulatory, and metabolic networks. The next section focuses on diagnostic and prognostic molecular indicators (biomarkers), followed by the application of modeling in the context of government regulatory agencies. Systems toxicology approaches are also introduced. The volume closes with primers and background on some of the key mathematical and statistical methods covered earlier, as well as a list of other resources. Written in a format consistent with the successful \u003ci\u003eMethods in Molecular Biology\u003c\/i\u003e(TM) series where possible, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and software tools used, methods, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.\u003c\/p\u003eAuthoritative and easily accessible, \u003ci\u003eComputational Toxicology\u003c\/i\u003e will allow motivated readers to participate in this excitingfield and undertake a diversity of realistic problems of interest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brad Reisfeld\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1493963260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781493963263\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Humana\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/23\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 648\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 1.33d","brand":"Brad Reisfeld","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48518658752767,"sku":"9781493963263","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e15e434-1d59-4a52-8d6a-b5e8c81832cb.jpg?v=1778735149","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/computational-toxicology-brad-reisfeld-9781493963263","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
