Molecular Diagnostics and Epidemiology

Molecular epidemiology is a science that helps molecular biology to identify the patterns of disease distribution in the population. Pathogen genome project helped to multilocus pathogen isolates type sequence, environmental fitness survey and disease virulence patterns. Molecular diagnosis is a collection of techniques used for analysing genome and proteome biological markers and for the expression of their genes as proteins by applying molecular biology to medical testing.
