Biomedical scientists are the foundation of modern healthcare, from cancer screening to diagnosing HIV, from blood transfusion for surgery to food poisoning and infection control. 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. The Fundamentals of Biomedical Science series is 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. Alongside volumes exploring specific biomedical themes and related laboratory diagnosis, an overarching Biomedical Science Practice volume gives a grounding in the professional and experimental skills with which any Biomedical Scientist must be equipped. The series DT Understands the complex roles of Biomedical Scientists in the modern practice of medicine. DT Understands the development needs of employers and the Profession. DT Addresses the need for understanding of a range of fundamental sciences in the context of Biomedicine. DT Places the theoretical aspects of Biomedical Science in their practical context. Biomedical Science Practice presents the essential practical and professional skills that every biomedical scientist should master, making it the perfect foundation for the study of each of the key subject specialisms that maybe encountered in the biomedical lab. The book reviews a broad range of professional skills and concepts, including health and safety considerations, personal development, and communication, and also introduces the key experimental and analytical approaches that form the basis of the investigation and diagnosis of clinical conditions. Drawing on the wealth of experience of a range of biomedical science practitioners and educators, Biomedical Science Practice is the ideal companion throughout your biomedical science education and training. Online Resource Centre The Online Resource Centre to accompany Biomedical Science Practice features: For registered adopters of the book: DT Figures from the book, available to download For students: DT An interactive Digital Microscope, encouraging the exploration of tissue samples DT Self-assessment modules to help you to check and reinforce understanding of the basic science introduced in each volume DT Video podcasts including interviews with practicing biomedical scientists, and 'in the lab' footage showing biomedical science in practice

The Thrive in Bioscience guides are written to help students achieve exam success in all core areas of bioscience. Each title in the series encourages students to follow four simple steps to maximize learning potential: Step 1: Review the facts The revision guides are designed to make learning quick and effective: * Information is set out in bullet points, making content easy to take in. * Clear, uncluttered illustrations illuminate key points. * Key concept panels summarize essential learning points. Step 2: Check your understanding Students are encouraged to: * Complete the questions at the end of chapters and answer online multiple-choice questions to reinforce their learning. * Use the online flashcard app to master essential terms and phrases. Step 3: Take note of extra advice Revision tips--and hints for getting higher grades on exams--are presented throughout. Step 4: Go the extra mile Students can explore the suggestions for further reading to take their understanding one step further. Features of the Thrive in Bioscience Series: * Written by a group of highly experienced educators * Succinct writing style and clear, bulleted presentation * Carefully developed artwork that reinforces key points * Extensive in-text pedagogy--including review questions--that supports active learning * Companion website resources--including interactive flashcards and multiple-choice review questions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Titles in the series: Thrive in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology by Lynne Cox, David Harris, and Catherine Pears ISBN 9780199645480 Thrive in Cell Biology by Qiuyu Wang, Chris Smith, and Emma Davis ISBN 9780199697328 Thrive in Ecology and Evolution by Alan Beeby and Ralph Beeby ISBN 9780199644056 Thrive in Genetics by Alison Thomas ISBN 9780199694624

Biology of Disease

Praise for the First Edition: 
‘an excellent introduction to the subject of pathology, disease and laboratory diagnostics ... ideal for undergraduate students on biomedical science and related degrees’ 
Alison Cottell for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education 
‘When you first pick up this book and peruse the pages it is immediately encouraging. The presentation and production values are very good, the diagrams and photographs look professional and it is a substantial volume, all of which suggests a worthwhile textbook. I recommend this book to students and tutors as a text for any course on the biology of disease.’ 
D.J. Cook for British Journal of Biomedical Science 
Biology of Disease describes the biology of many of the human disorders and disease that are encountered in a clinical setting. Assuming no prior knowledge of the principles of diagnostic science, chapters follow a consistent format throughout. Each opens with a statement of learning objectives, a basic introduction and a description of normal physiology. These are followed by a discussion of how the latter is altered by the disease process and comprehensive coverage of the scientific principles underlying disease development, diagnosis and treatment. Real cases are used to illustrate the importance of biology in understanding the causes of disease, as well as in diagnosis and therapy. This second edition has been thoroughly and revised and updated throughout and is now presented in full colour with more case studies and increased illustration. 
Key Features: Summarizes the biological bases of common diseases Discusses real cases, placing basic science in a clinical context for the student Includes learning objectives, end of chapter summaries and questions for self-testing Extensively illustrated in full colour with explanatory line diagrams and photographs Additional online resources for students and lecturers available for download from https://www.routledge.com/9781032284361 
This book is designed to meet the needs of undergraduates on biomedical, clinical and healthcare science programmes, and is also suitable for those studying relevant units at postgraduate level. Nursing and biological science students interested in disease should also find it useful..
