Summary: "This best-selling undergraduate textbook provides an introduction t o key experimental techniques from across the biosciences. It uniquely integrates the theories and practices that drive the fields of biology and medicine, comprehensively covering both the methods students will e ncounter in lab classes and those that underpin recent advances and dis coveries. Its problem-solving approach continues with worked examples t hat set a challenge and then show students how the challenge is met. Ne w to this edition are case studies, for example, that illustrate the re levance of the principles and techniques to the diagnosis and treatment of individual patients. Coverage is expanded to include a section on s tem cells, chapters on immunochemical techniques and spectroscopy techn iques, and additional chapters on drug discovery and development, and c linical biochemistry. Experimental design and the statistical analysis of data are emphasised throughout to ensure students are equipped to su ccessfully plan their own experiments and examine the results obtained" --Provided by publisher.Summary: "This textbook integrates the theoretical principles and experimenta l techniques common to all undergraduate courses in the bio- and medica l sciences"--Provided by publisher.
