Protocol Handbook for Cancer Biology brings together a comprehensive collection of the methods used for cancer assessment, diagnostics, and therapeutics. Various protocols are discussed along with alternative strategies, including the advantages and limitations of techniques that have been used in labs globally. These protocols are presented by cancer biology experts based on their real-world experience. The protocols in this book will be a valuable resource for cancer researchers and graduate students, who can utilize the techniques described to conduct research more efficiently and successfully.
- Presents comprehensive protocols used for cancer assessment, diagnostics, and therapeutics all in one place
- Encompasses alternative strategies considering the requirements of the end user and taking into consideration diverse research settings
- Discusses limitations and advantages of each method in experimental design and execution, thus saving time during the research process
