Dendritic Cells, Third Edition is the new edition of the extremely successful book published in 1998. With the volume of literature on dendritic cells doubling every year, it is almost impossible to keep up. This book provides an up-to-date synthesis of the literature, written by the very best authors, and is essential reading for any scientist working in immunology, cell biology, infectious diseases, cancer, transplantation, genetic engineering and the pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry.
Researchers and Research Clinicians in Immunology, Cancer Biology, Cell Biology, Infectious Diseases, AIDS, Autoimmunity, Virology, Transplantation and Genetic Engineering. Will also be of interest to Biotechnology and Pharmacology companies.
