Genomic technologies provide the means of diagnosis and management of many human diseases. Without insights from cytogenetics, correct interpretation of modern high-throughput results is difficult, if not impossible. This book summarizes applications of cytogenetics and molecular cytogenetics for students, clinicians and researchers in genetics, genomics and diagnostics. The book combines the state-of-the-art knowledge and practical expertise from leading researchers and clinicians and provides a comprehensive overview of current medical and research applications of many of these technologies.KEY FEATURES• Provides clear summaries of fluorescence in situ hybridization technologies and others• Comprehensively covers established and emerging methods• Chapters from an international team of leading researchers• Useful for students, researchers and clinicians

Thomas Liehr is working in human genetics since 1991. He is biologist by education and head of the molecular cytogenetic group in Jena, Germany. Research fields include clinical genetics, leukemia cytogenetics and interphase structure of human chromosomes. The results of his research are published in >10 books, ~100 book chapter, ~800 referred papers, and ~1000 abstracts. His particular expertise includes small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMC), chromosomal heteromorphisms and uniparental disomy – see ChromosOmics databases (http://cs-tl.de/DB.html). He is active member of the European Board of Medical Genetics and received multiple prices, two invited professorships and a Dr.h.c. as summarized at http://cs-tl.de/.
