Mining the Biomedical Literature Computational Molecular Biology Sorin Istrail, Pavel Pevzner, and Michael Waterman, editors Computational molecular biology is a new discipline, bringing together computational, statistical, experimental, and technological methods, which is energizing and dramatically accelerating the discovery of new technologies and tools for molecular biology. The MIT Press Series on Computational Molecular Biology is intended to provide a unique and effective venue for the rapid publication of monographs, textbooks, edited collections, reference works, and lecture notes of the highest quality.
