Without biomedical scientists, the diagnosis of disease, the evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment, and research into the causes and cures of disease would not be possible. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Fundamentals of Biomedical Science series has been written to reflect the challenges of practicing biomedical science today. It draws together essential basic science with insights into laboratory practice to show how an understanding of the biology of disease is coupled to the analytical approaches that lead to diagnosis. Assuming only a minimum of prior knowledge, the series reviews the full range of disciplines to which a Biomedical Scientist may be exposed - from microbiology to cytopathology to transfusion science. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe series: \u003cbr\u003eDT Understands the complex roles of Biomedical Scientists in the modern practice of medicine.\u003cbr\u003eDT Understands the development needs of employers and the Profession.\u003cbr\u003eDT Addresses the need for understanding of a range of fundamental sciences in the context of Biomedicine.\u003cbr\u003eDT Places the theoretical aspects of Biomedical Science in their practical context via clinical case studies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eMedical Microbiology\u003c\/em\u003e covers a range of key laboratory techniques used in the diagnosis of important human diseases caused by microorganisms. From sample collection, through to analysis and laboratory investigation, the text covers a wide range of procedures and highlights how and why results are generated. The third edition has been expanded to cover a wider range of topics, including a new chapter on Whole Genome Sequencing and extended coverage of syphilis and MALDI.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichael Ford, \u003cem\u003eMicrobiology Department, Freeman Hospital, Newcastle Upon Tyne\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDr Michael Ford has worked in Microbiology for over 30 years and was appointed Microbiology Laboratory Manager for the Newcastle Upon Tyne NHS Foundation Trust in 2014. Michael has a wide experience in all areas of diagnostic service provision. He has recently worked very closely with Public Health England which resulted in the transfer of their Newcastle services into the Trust. A key part of this was the setting up of a new molecular diagnostic service for Newcastle. His main research area involved developing novel methods of bacterial identification, which resulted in a number of publications and two successful patents for the development of novel selective media. He has been a lecturer at Northumbria University on both the BSc and MSc Microbiology programmes. Michael has also been a key member of the IBMS Scientific Advisory Panel for Microbiology and IBMS Deputy Chief Examiner.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 568\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.15 x 9.69 x 7.44 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 30, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47341147685113,"sku":"9780198818144","price":94.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/cD0Kj5gBYm9780198818144_9cd16054-6516-4771-9b5d-cdb31ba2bae7.webp?v=1769699167","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/medical-microbiology-paperback-2","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
