Next-Generation Genome Sequencing

Dr. Michal Janitz is a group leader at the Department of Vertebrate Genomics at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Berlin. Dr. Janitz scientific interest is focused on technology development related to high-throughput functional genomics using cell array and nanowell-based oligonucleotide fingerprinting. Before joining the MPIMG Dr. Janitz was a postdoc at the German Rheumatism Research Center in Berlin where he also received a Ph.D on studies concerning functional analysis of the MHC class II promoters polymorphisms. He is a member of the German National Genome Research Network and Gerson Lehrman Group Healthcare & Biomedical Council.

Führende Experten aus der industriellen und akademischen Forschung fassen die neuesten Entwicklungen auf dem Gebiet der DNA-Sequenzierung zusammen und untersuchen, wie sich diese Neuerungen auf die Genomforschung, Wirkstoffentwicklung und das Gesundheitswesen (Stichwort: personalisierte Medizin) auswirken. Kommerziell verfügbare Plattformen werden ausführlich beschrieben und alternativen Verfahren gegenübergestellt. Neben den rein naturwissenschaftlich-medizinischen Fragen kommen auch soziale, ethische und wirtschaftliche Aspekte zur Sprache.

Written by leading experts from industry and academia, this first single comprehensive resource addresses recent developments in next generation DNA sequencing technology and their impact on genome research, drug discovery, health care, social and ethical issues.
