Produktbeschreibung

This volume provides a comprehensive account of the mostrecent trends in human leukemia, as presented at the NinthWilsede Meeting. The internationally renowned contributorsdeal with all different aspects of these diseases: As wellas discussing important clinical aspects of leukemia, newinformation on the biological basis of leukemia gained usingthe methods of molecular genetics, cell and molecularbiology, virology, and immunology is covered. The book showsboth the complexity of leukemia research, as well as thevalue of basic scientific research in furthering clinicalmedicine and therapy.
