More Information
Summary:Written primarily for students embarking on an undergraduate bioscience degree, this primer provides a concise overview of microbial biotechnology, it's societal and ethical implications, the challenges that remain, and the potential and future research directions, helping students to further their understanding and make the transition to active researcher. Oxford Biology Primers are the only resource to introduce prospective and current students of undergraduate-level bioscience to a range of topics from this dynamic experimental science, enticing readers to study further. Its titles directly support two key transitions in the student journey: from school to undergraduate-level study, and from undergraduate to independent researcher. Its modular format offers a high degree of flexibility, with teachers being able to draw on specific volumes that augment the post-16 curriculum, university lecturers being able to draw on specific volumes at different stages of the undergraduate curriculum, and with materials from the series being available for access in both print and digital formats. Also available as an e-book with functionality, navigation features, and links that offer extra learning support.
