Produktbeschreibung

Cellular and Molecular Approaches in Fish Biology is a highly interdisciplinary resource to bring industry professionals, students and researchers up-to-date with the latest developments and information on fish biology research combining a historical overview of the different research areas in fish biology and detailed descriptions of cellular and molecular approaches with explanations and recommendations for research. The book presents a global perspective of each research area with detailed analytical methodologies on the cellular and molecular mechanisms within fish biology for expermentation. The book provides different points of view on how researchers have addressed timely issues, while describing and dissecting some of the new experimental/analytical approaches used to answer the key questions at cellular and molecular levels, making this a valuable resource to those in industry and academia as well as those entering the field.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Ignacio Fernandez Monzón is a researcher of fish physiology at the Spanish National Research Council's Institute of Oceanography (CSIC-IEO). He obtained his BSc in Marine Sciences from the University of Vigo, his MSc in Aquaculture from the University of Barcelona, and his PhD in Biology from the University of Barcelona, Spain. His research employs multidisciplinary techniques, including in vivo and in vitro approaches, histology and immunohistochemistry procedures, live imaging, bioinformatics, and transcriptomic analysis. He is co-author of Elsevier's Cellular and Molecular Approaches in Fish Biology.

Dr. Jorge Manuel de Oliveira Fernandes is a research professor at the Spanish National Research Council's Institute of Marine Sciences (CSIC-ICM). He obtained his BSc in Chemical Engineering from the Instituto Superior Técnico, Portugal, and his PhD in Comparative Immunology from the University of St. Andrews, UK. His research focuses on muscle growth and innate immunity in teleost fishes, with special emphasis on epigenetic regulation of gene networks in commercially important species. He has contributed to six books on this topic, including co-authoring Elsevier's Cellular and Molecular Approaches in Fish Biology.
