IOS Press, 1997 - Medical - 633 pages
Studies in Stomatology and Craniofacial Biology contains 33 papers under the general headings of developmental biology, developmental pathology, acquired pathology, and gene therapy. The book covers the basic science of stomatology (diseases of the mouth) and craniofacial biology in general. The subject matter is wide in scope and utilizes a variety of modern molecular and genetic approaches. Major topics are covered such as: Developmental Biology; Developmental Pathology; Acquired Pathology; Gene Therapy. This book will be of great interest to researchers in genetics, embryology, bone biology, dental science, microbiology and oncology.
