Beskrivning
Twentieth Century Mouse Genetics: A Historical and Scientific Review provides a comprehensive examination of key advances in mouse genetics throughout the 20th century. Here Dr. Robert P. Erickson, a leader in the field, identifies the contributions of historic mouse genetics studies, and how those approaches and early discoveries are still shaping human genetics research and medical genetics today. In addition to historical overviews, the author provides researcher biographies and updates connecting historic research to ongoing advances. Past studies discussed use the T/t complex as an example and include the origins of mouse genetics, the synthesis of genetics and evolution, cytogenetics and gene mapping, population genetics and mutation research, immunogenetics, reproductive genetics, molecular cloning, X-inactivation and epigenetics, sex determination, and pharmacogenetics. Here researchers, students, and clinicians will find fresh inspiration to engage in human genetics research employing mouse models and to translate those findings to clinical practice.

  • Offers a comprehensive examination of key advances in mouse genetics throughout the 20th century

Recensioner i media

"This book will have strong appeal to a limited audience. Those interested in the history and development of mouse genetics, and of mouse genetics in the wider context of the history of genetics, will find this book an interesting read. Indeed, it stands out from other books covering similar topics by the personal experience of the author in the field. " --© Doody’s Review Service, 2021, Mark F.
