Insights from Imaging in Bioinorganic Chemistry

Insights from Imaging in Bioinorganic Chemistry continues a long-running series that describes recent advances in scientific research, in particular, in the field of inorganic chemistry. Several highly regarded experts, mostly from academe, contribute on specific topics. The series editor chooses a sub-field within inorganic chemistry as the theme and focus of the volume, extending invitations to experts for their contributions; the current theme is insights from metal ion imaging in bioinorganic and medicinal chemistry.

Contains concise, informative accounts that are not too highly specialized, therefore appealing to a wide range of scientists and health professionalsPresents contributions from highly qualified international expertsProvides intrinsic scientific interest and applications, including important issues relating to the diagnosis and therapeutics that are relevant to public health
