Description

In today's data driven biology, programming knowledge is essential in turning ideas into testable hypothesis. Based on the author’s extensive experience, Python for Bioinformatics, Second Edition helps biologists get to grips with the basics of software development. Requiring no prior knowledge of programming-related concepts, the book focuses on the easy-to-use, yet powerful, Python computer language.

This new edition is updated throughout to Python 3 and is designed not just to help scientists master the basics, but to do more in less time and in a reproducible way. New developments added in this edition include NoSQL databases, the Anaconda Python distribution, graphical libraries like Bokeh, and the use of Github for collaborative development.
About Sebastian Bassi
Sebastián Bassi is a Biotechnologist with experience both in software development and bioinformatics research. He worked more than four years for an agribusiness company doing molecular marker database curation. He also helped the EU-SOL project with the bioinformatics support of the international effort to sequence the tomato genome. Both positions involved Python development and intensive data manipulation. While working on this project also collaborated with the development of a web application to query a micro RNA database, which was published at BMC Plant Biology (doi:10.1186/1471-2229-10-240). He also worked on the first Linux distribution for bioinformatics (DNALinux). The last five years we had been working at Globant where he was involved in several projects for leading companies. During this time he was exposed to a myriad of technologies such as Django, Selenium, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Amazon Web Services (he is an AWS Certified Solutions Architect), PHP and Ruby (among others). He is frequently invited to Python conferences such as Pycon and SciPy.
