  • Métodos de investigación clínica y epidemiológica

    • 5th Edition
    • Josep Maria Argimon Pallàs + 1 more
    • Spanish
    Guía práctica y de referencia para el estudio de los fundamentos del método científico y el diseño y desarrollo de un protocolo de estudio, así como para la lectura e interpretación crítica de artículos científicos. El objetivo de la obra es que el lector sea capaz de elaborar un protocolo de estudio, de modo que aquellos profesionales que se enfrentan al reto de diseñar una investigación puedan seguir paso a paso las diferentes fases, desde los planteamientos iniciales, la definición del objetivo y la realización de una búsqueda bibliográfica eficiente, hasta la planificación de la estrategia de análisis. Los autores combinan los contenidos teóricos con capítulos y temas tan prácticos como la solicitud de una ayuda para la financiación de la investigación, una guía para la elaboración de los protocolos de estudio, su puesta en marcha, cálculos prácticos del tamaño muestral, etc. Se incorpora material complementario online, renovado y actualizado como son casos de estudio, un glosario de términos en español e inglés, así como una batería de preguntas abiertas de cálculo, de elección múltiple y didácticas.

  • Reactive Species Detection in Biology

    From Fluorescence to Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
    • 1st Edition
    • Frederick A. Villamena
    • English
    Reactive Species Detection in Biology: From Fluorescence to Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy discusses the reactive oxygen species that have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various diseases, presenting theories, chemistries, methodologies, and various applications for the detection of reactive species in biological systems, both in-vitro and in-vivo. Techniques covered include fluorescence, high performance chromatography, mass spectrometry, immunochemistry, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Probe design and development are also reviewed in order to advance new approaches in radical detection through synthesis, computations, or experimental applications.

  • Nanotechnology in Cancer

    • 1st Edition
    • Anshu Mathur
    • English
    Nanotechnology in Cancer covers current nanotechnology-based nanotherapeutics involving gold nanoparticles, colloids, gels, magnetic nanoparticles, radiofrequency, gene therapy, biological particles, and the intermolecular interactions associated with nanoparticle based cancer therapy in vivo. Different cancer types and locations are considered alongside the corresponding treatment types, and the use of imaging technologies and animal models are also explored. Both scientific and clinical aspects are considered by authors coming from both fields, with the authors using their backgrounds from different disciplines to make the connection between cancer and effective drug delivery and therapeutic strategies.

  • Introduction to Volcanic Seismology

    • 3rd Edition
    • Vyacheslav M Zobin
    • English
    Introduction to Volcanic Seismology, Third Edition covers all aspects of volcano seismology, specifically focusing on recent studies and developments. This new edition expands on the historical aspects, including updated information on how volcanic seismology was handled in the past (instrumentation, processing techniques, number of observatories worldwide) that is compared to present day tactics. Updated case studies can be found throughout the book, providing information from the most studied volcanoes in the world, including those in Iceland. Additional features include descriptions of analog experiments, seismic networks, both permanent and temporal, and the link between volcanoes, plate tectonics, and mantle plumes. Beginning with an introduction to the history of volcanic seismology, the book then discusses models developed for the study of the origin of volcanic earthquakes of both a volcano-tectonic and eruption nature. In addition, the book covers a variety of topics from the different aspects of volcano-tectonic activity, the seismic events associated with the surface manifestations of volcanic activity, descriptions of eruption earthquakes, volcanic tremor, seismic noise of pyroclastic flows, explosion earthquakes, and the mitigation of volcanic hazards.
