商品簡介
Molecular genetics has revolutionized many fields of biology, including neuroscience, through the application of new techniques like recombinant DNA studies and new imaging options. This guide offers neuroscientists from graduate students upwards a comprehensive look at practical applications of molecular techniques. It covers numerous different technologies that are organized in five major sections: Working with Cells, Working with DNA, Working with RNA, Gene Transfer and Imaging. Each procedure includes an introduction, materials, reagents and equipment needed, methods, trouble shooting and recipes. Images and figures are used to help explain specific topics.

作者簡介
Dr. Lansford is the recipient of the NASA Space Act Award for his contributions of Two-photon Microscope Imaging Spectrometer for Multiple Fluorecent Probes. Lansford has multiple patents for his systems and methods for monitoring cellular activity, as well as for his work in laser microscopy and imaging spectrometry. This development of a multispectral imager that allows the emission spectrum to be acquired from a single scan of specimen led to a multispectral detector based upon his invention, which is being sold by Zeiss. Dr. Lansford's scientific contributions, have been featured in the Pasadena Museum of California Art in an exhibit entitled, "Data + Art: Science and Art in the Age of Information," as well and the San Francisco Exploratorium and California Science Center, where his Quail Developmental Atlas procured from basic research as a biology, math, and physics educational tool.
