The investigation and manipulation of matter on the atomic scale have been revolutionized by scanning tunneling microscopy and related scanning probe techniques. This book is the first to provide a clear and comprehensive introduction to this subject. Beginning with the theoretical background of scanning tunneling microscopy, the design and instrumentation of practical STM and associated systems are described in detail, including topographic imaging, local tunneling barrier height measurements, tunneling spectroscopy, and local potentiometry. A treatment of the experimental techniques used in scanning force microscopy and other scanning probe techniques rounds out this section. The second part discusses representative applications of these techniques in fields such as condensed matter physics, chemistry, materials science, biology, and nanotechnology, so this book will be extremely valuable to upper-division students and researchers in these areas.

This is an extensively illustrated laboratory manual of transmission electron microscopy techniques for the technician, graduate student, or researcher. Chapters begin with a general discussion, move on to the chemicals and equipment required for the method being described and conclude with a step-by-step presentation of the method and instructions for the preparation of solutions. Notes at the end of each chapter warn of possible pitfalls and outline 'tricks of the trade'. The methods and techniques outlined have been tested for over ten years in clinical and research laboratory situations, and are entirely reliable. Practical Electron Microscopy covers fixation, dehydration and embedding, semi-thin and thin sectioning, the electron microscope, and photography. For this new edition, the chapters on photography and the electron microscope have been completely rewritten and two new chapters have been added, one on immuno electron microscopy using colloidal gold, and one dealing with such special techniques as retrieving specimens from paraffin and handling nasal brushings and blood samples. This manual will be an invaluable guide to anyone using electron microscopy on human and animal tissue and wishing to develop a routine that guarantees good and reproducible results.

The compound optical microscope, in its various modern forms, is probably the most familiar of all laboratory instruments and the electron microscope, once an exotic rarity, has now become a standard tool in biological and materials research. Both instruments are often used effectively with little knowledge of the relevant theory, or even of how a particular type of microscope functions. Eventually however, proper use, interpretation of images and choices of specific applications demand an understanding of fundamental principles. This book describes the principles of operation of each type of microscope currently available and of use to biomedical and materials scientists. It explains the mechanisms of image formation, contrast and its enhancement, accounts for ultimate limits on the size of observable details (resolving power and resolution) and finally provides an account of Fourier optical theory. Principles behind the photographic methods used in microscopy are also described and there is some discussion of image processing methods. The book will appeal to graduate students and researchers in the biomedical sciences, and it will be helpful to students taking a course involving the principles of microscopy.

Die Proceedings der 35. Jahrestagung der Gesellschaft fur Medizinische Dokumentation, Informatik und Statistik geben einen UEberblick uber die derzeit wichtigen Forschungsschwerpunkte der Epidemiologie. Dabei konnten zum ersten Mal auch Beitrage aus der ehemaligen DDR in groesserer Zahl eingebracht werden. Schwerpunkte des Proceedingsbandes bilden die Epidemiologie kardiovaskularer Erkrankungen, die Umweltepidemiologie, die Epidemiologie von Berufskrankheiten und das epidemiologische Monitoring von Krebserkrankungen und Infektionskrankheiten. Die Qualitat verfugbarer Datenquellen wird kritisch diskutiert und die Bedeutung der Epidemiologie fur eine Verbesserung der Gesundheitsberichterstattung in den alten und in den neuen Bundeslandern klargelegt. Daruber hinaus werden methodische Probleme und unterstutzende Techniken der Medizinischen Informatik angesprochen.

Der Proceedingsband enth{lt ausgew{hlte ausgew{hlte refe- rierte Aufs{tze sowohl zu innovativen Entwicklungen in den Disziplinen Biometrie und Medizinische Informatik als auch }ber den Einsatz bekannter, bew{hrter Konzepte aus diesen Fachbereichen in der Medizin. Behandelt werden spezielle Fragestellungen zu den Themen Epidemiologie, methodische Therapieforschung, Nachweis therapeutischer Oquivalenz, Dia- gnostik und Monitoring von Krankheitsprozessen, Modellierung biologischer Mechanismen, biometrische Methoden, medizini- sche Dokumentation, L-sungsans{tze f}r Informationssysteme, spezielle Hard- und Softwarel-sungen, Expertensysteme, Bild- kommunikation und Archivierung, Bilderzeugung, wissensba- sierte Bildinterpretation und 3-d Darstellungsverfahren.

The undergraduate research project is almost universally treated as the culmination of all previous lecture, lab and tutorial work. The project allows for the development of individuality and confers ownership of a challenge possessing an originality that goes far beyond the communal legacy presented by age old lab scenarios. Central to this is the magical transition of the student from a consumer of knowledge to a producer, yet the journey is often both daunting and perplexing when considering where to start and how to reach the destination using the resources provided and in the allotted time. There are numerous books within the social sciences which provide students with guidance on how to conduct a "successful" project but few can be found in relation to the physical sciences. This can be ascribed to the fact that the former has a very similar structure and procedural methodology whereas the latter can possess a near fractal differentiation into a myriad of sub disciplines and specialisms thereby preventing the provision of a single, expansive catchall text. This book adapts some of the components and ethos of the Projects in Controlled Environments (PRinCE2) project management approach to physical science projects. This is the industry and government standard and was introduced to address the common causes of project failure ie. not delivering projects on time, within budget, within scope or to the right quality. It has rapidly emerged as an international standard and most graduates will doubtless encounter it upon moving outside academia and into the wider world. It is a concise, multilevel resource that provides guidance on the core components common to almost every project within the physical, engineering and life sciences (problem assessment and contextualisation, literature review practices, sources and citation, data presentation, reporting styles, data analysis and error etc). It standardises the delivery of the material but, more importantly, links the components together by outlining a coherent procedural road map that can highlight to the student "what to do," "when to do it" and "how to solve it" procedures. The content of the book is presented through case studies so as to enhance the relevance of the processes, presents examples of good practice and, in keeping with the toolbox approach, can be readily adapted and applied by the students. The book is an accessible reference guide for students, written in a light style, suitable for dipping in and out of as required and the "how to/when to/what if" examples are presented in an often humorous light. It includes flow charts to emphasize the project planning, dissertation components etc and charts to highlight presentation of data, analysis, interpretation and error.
