Epigenetic Biomarkers and Diagnostics

This book explores the intersection between epigenetic biomarkers and clinical diagnostics, and is divided into three distinct sections, including the basis of epigenetic mechanisms, the importance of the sample quality, and the technologies and methods used to discover and analyze epigenetic biomarkers.
