Infos

This topical volume in the respected Encyclopedia series is the first in many years to bring together all important aspects of developmental biology in one source, from morphogenesis and organogenesis, via epigenetic regulation of gene expression to evolutionary developmental biology. The editor-in-chief has assembled an outstanding team of contributors to review these topics, creating an authoritative work for many years to come.
The result is a unique, top-level reference in developmental biology for researchers, students and professionals alike. Dieser aktuelle Band aus der renommierten enzyklopädischen Reihe ist der erste in vielen Jahren, der alle wichtigen Aspekte der Entwicklungsbiologie vereint, von der Morphogenese und Organogenese, über die epigenetische Regulation der Genexpression bis hin zur evolutionären Entwicklungsbiologie. Der Herausgeber hat ein herausragendes Team zusammengestellt, das diese Themen beleuchtet, und damit ein wegweisendes Werk für die kommenden Jahre geschaffen. Das Ergebnis ist ein einzigartiges, herausragendes Referenzwerk der Entwicklungsbiologie für Forscher, Studenten und Fachexperten.

Autor

Robert A. Meyers obtained his Ph.D. in Chemistry at the University of California at Los Angeles. He was a post-doctoral fellow at the California Institute of Technology and has more than 17 patents, 50 technical papers and 12 books to his name. As Editor-in-Chief he conceived and edited several ambitious multivolume reference works, e.g. the Encyclopedia of Analytical Chemistry (Wiley), the Encyclopedia of Molecular Biology and Molecular Medicine (Wiley-VCH) and the Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology (Academic Press).
