This book serves as a source of information to facilitate the reading of the literature and the planning of trials.
Supplies in one place all the information on this active and complex research topic and may stimulate more research that can lead to more exchanges between the laboratory, the clinical ward and the operating room.
Fills the need of surgeons to understand the molecular mechanisms in hepatology.
Provides a quick and comprehensive overview.
