  1. Una sólida introducción a la programación con Python, muy accesible para los lectores sin experiencia previa en programación, aunque quienes tengan experiencia también pueden sacarle provecho. Python para bioinformática está pensado para biólogos, bioinformáticos y otros profesionales de las ciencias de la vida.

  2. Are you confident your statistical results are correct? To answer this, you need to know the concepts behind statistics. This book, and R code, focus on data with correlated errors that arise in mixed models and phylogenetic models. It will hopefully give you confidence to judge statistical methods and the results they produce. The book is free!

  3. Modelling survival under chemical stress
    A comprehensive guide to the GUTS framework
    Tjalling Jager and Roman Ashauer

    Survival is a relevant endpoint for many questions related to the effects of chemicals in the environment. Making sense of mortality, as a process over time, requires mechanism-based models, known as toxicokinetic-toxicodynamic (TKTD) models. All published TKTD models for survival can now be viewed as members of an over-arching framework: GUTS.

  4. My e-book,41 pages,comments The EU Commission´s newly published 5 futureplans from the alternative thinker´s perspective.Commission´s interests broadened on the new,bolder ground,based in the author´s writings for a new paradigm of science and from it deduced new solutions.

  5. Bio/Recursion
    An Exploration in R
    Shawn T. O'Neil

    Available as PDF+Code Files or on Amazon, Bio/Recursion explores computer science and bioinformatics via examples in the R programming language. Along the way, over 100 color illustrations, 150 code blocks, and dozens of exercises illuminate the text.

  6. Where do our infectious diseases come from? Why do they kill us? How do they manipulate our behaviour? How can we manage resistance against our control strategies? These are some of the topics of Evolutionary Ecology of Infectious Diseases, a short textbook about evolution and parasites..

  7. R for Photobiology
    Theory and recipes for common calculations
    Pedro J. Aphalo, T. Matthew Robson, and Titta Kotilainen

    Photobiology is the branch of science that studies the interactions of living organisms with visible and ultraviolet radiation. This book first presents the theory behind calculations related to research in photobiology and describes how to use R as a tool for carrying out these calculations.

  8. The Dynamics of Life
    Modelling biological systems with R
    Jacob C. Koella

    Understanding the dynamics of biological systems is becoming indispensable knowledge for biologists. The Dynamics of Life will help you to get a grasp of the fundamentals, and it will show you how to use and develop these aspects with the programming language R.

  9. Coding Genetics
    A course on population genetics and R
    Jacob C. Koella

    Coding Genetics teaches programming in R by discussing key concepts of the dynamics and statistics of genes. You can use it as an introduction to programming or as a textbook of population genetics.

  10. Quantification Manual for Volocity 6.3
    Getting your data more objective and faster!
    Yanning Zuo

    Always wanting to free yourself from boring image analysis? Here comes your savior! Read this manual and get things done even faster and more objective!

  11. This is the third book in a series of four. It is based upon the Contra-Darwinism theory and the Organelle Escape Theory. In this book you will find an example of how genetics and metabolism may have evolved. 

  12. The Nature of LIFE
    An focus on its scientific essence and a thought work about its theoretical description
    Reik Oberrath

    There is a huge amount of research and teaching done in life sciences worldwide. But what is the band that holds the various life science disciplines together? What is life actually? Unfortunately there is no global understanding about it, no theory of life. But this may be a new approach to it: information-processing!
