Abstract

DNA microarrays are a tool for simultaneously assessing the expression levels of thousands of genes in a single experiment, making them well-suited to understanding the complex gene response patterns and the regulatory pathways involved in human disease. This article reviews the basics of array technology and analysis, and highlights its application to pediatric diseases.
