Abstract:
Medical researchers including doctors, nurses, medical students and allied health professionals are required to undertake a period of research as part of their career pathway. Basic Science Techniques in Clinical Practice covers the main areas, allowing anyone to set up and complete research projects and this information can easily be translated to clinical projects. Written by international authors to provide a flavor from many institutions, the book’s appeal is cross-sectional, both at hospital and primary care levels worldwide. The book covers modern laboratory techniques for laboratory-based research, as well as research governance and designing projects.
