Description

Thompson & Thompson Genetics and Genomics in Medicine, 9th edition (PDF Book)

By Ronald Cohn, Stephen Scherer, Ada Hamosh

First released in 1966, Thompson and Thompson’s Genetics and Genomics in Medicine has become a popular text for medical students, genetic counseling students, lab students, and more advanced trainers. With its emphasis on the fundamental principles of human genetics and genomics, the book has been returned to by multiple authors as a resource that is frequently re-read.

These students can still rely on the important text, joining other students in fields of new genetic data analysis that they need to know about during their basic science training, clinical applications, and beyond. Coverage includes new findings, such as the functional significance of noncoding RNAs, the regulation of chromatin, and the use of epigenetic and other technologies.

Under a different title, this 9th edition has been completely re-structured by a new editorial team that overseees a large number of contributing authors. Other groups have also assisted in the updating of images that feature beautiful depictions of those afflicted by genetic disorders.

Comprehensive coverage of: genomes in biology and medicine; copy number and structural genetic variation; innovative discoveries; and new genetic diagnoses.

Over 40 clinical studies that explore the latest issues of variable expression, polypharmacy, and complex disorders through new approaches to diagnosis.

Full-color written work, illustrations, updated line drawings, and clinical images

End-of-chapter questions and comprehensive responses that challenge the reader and encourage him or her to put the material into practice and prepare for exams.

Multiple choice questions and UMSLE-style questions that are part of the ebook.

A more enhanced version of the eBook is associated with the purchase. The eBook provides you with access to all of the text, figures and references, along with the ability to search for, customize, make notes and highlights, and have the content read aloud.

New and updated clinical cases, accompanied by photographs from the nonprofit organization, Positive Exposure,

New content regarding the increasing role of sequencing and new functional assays in the diagnosis and detection of genetic disorders.

New era on Epigenetics

More specific and detailed terminology that is appropriate for the contemporary environment and its evolution.

New subsections that describe the utilization (and necessity) of genetic information from diverse populations, including indigenous people and founder populations, for diagnosis and treatment.
