Preface The aim of this book is to provide a practical guide to current methods for profiling and interpreting genomic alterations in tumors. This book will also provide a description of the main applications where tumor genome profiling is used in both research and clinical settings. A wide range of professionals from both basic science and medicine will find this guide to be a useful resource for learning about technical details, applications, and strengths and limitations of the latest technologies as applied to this increasingly important field. Researchers including molecular biologists, geneticists
