First sentence: The genomic revolution and the emergence of proteomics are transforming cancer research.
Description: The unique proteomic features that characterize cancers offer new opportunities for disease prevention and treatment. Despite intense interest, however, proteomics is just beginning to become a part of the cancer research mainstream, as relatively few cancer researchers have training in proteomics methods and approaches. This volume covers both the basic principles of proteomics along with detailed presentations of new and emerging technology that represent promising breakthroughs in cancer prevention and treatment.
