This book aims to supplement the reader's clinical experience with a carefully designed series of commonly encountered clinical problems in general surgery to simulate the clinical decision-making approach. Each clinical topic includes: a problem-solving approach; system-based essential core knowledge; concise explanations of relevant basic sciences; management pathways (based on the most up-to-date guidelines); FAQs; self-assessment (EMQs, SBAs, T/F). This book, primarily aimed at undergraduates and junior doctors, will guide and stimulate the reader to recognise, recall and apply the relevant facts to given clinical situations and also enhance success at clinical examinations. "Standard textbooks can be daunting. This book is different. I believe that students and young doctors will find this an easy read and will be able to translate the scenarios into an understanding of how clinical pathways are constructed. By asking questions through the pathways students are encouraged to develop their own ideas - a form of problem-based learning rather than learning by rote. Retention of facts is so much easier when they form part of a story." David Cade FRCS, Consultant Surgeon

A comprehensive collection of best practices in public health education. As more students are drawn to public health as a field of study and a profession, bringing varied backgrounds and experiences with them, the number of public health programs and schools of public health has grown substantially. How can teachers meet the changing needs of incoming students—and ensure that graduates have the knowledge, skills, and attributes to pursue further education and forge successful careers in public health? Aimed at experienced and new teachers alike, this timely volume is a cutting-edge primer on teaching public health around the globe. Bringing together leaders in the field with expertise across the educational continuum, the book combines the conceptual underpinnings needed to advance curricula with the resources to train and support faculty in innovative teaching methods. This thorough book • discusses challenges faced by public health teachers • examines the principles and practices for teaching at each level of study • describes technological and pedagogical innovations in public health education • stresses the importance of life-long learning and interprofessional education • offers concrete tips for engaging students through active and collaborative learning • focuses on teaching cultural competency and reaching diverse student populations • looks to the future, building on emerging trends and anticipating where the field is headed A field-defining volume, Teaching Public Health offers a concrete plan to ensure that both individual courses and overall curricula are responsive to the needs of a rapidly changing student body and the world beyond the school.

Medical genetics encompasses many different areas, including the clinical practice of doctors, genetic counselors and nutritionists, clinical diagnostic laboratory activities and research on the causes and inheritance of genetic disorders. Examples of conditions that are within the scope of medical genetics include birth defects and dysmorphology, mental retardation, autism, mitochondrial disorders, skeletal dysplasia, connective tissue disorders, cancer genetics, teratogens and prenatal diagnosis. Medical genetics is becoming increasingly relevant for many common diseases. Overlaps with other medical specialties are beginning to emerge, as recent advances in genetics are revealing etiologies for neurological, endocrine, cardiovascular, pulmonary, ophthalmological, renal, psychiatric and dermatological diseases. Summary of the contents of this book: Genetic disorders: Classification Chromosomal disorders Mitochondrial diseases: Mitochondrial genetics Proteopathy The human genome and the chromosomal base of inheritance Cancer cytogenetics The human genome and its chromosomes DNA structure: a brief summary Organization of human chromosomes Cell division The human karyotype Human gametogenesis and fertilization Importance and medical significance of Mitosis and Meiosis Structure and function of the human genome Genome Keys

The great diversity of microbial life is the remaining major reservoir of unknown biological diversity on earth. To understand this vast, but largely unperceived diversity with its untapped genetic, enzymatic and industrial potential, microbial systematics is undergoing a revolutionary change in its approach to describe novel taxa based on genomic/envirogenomic information. The characterization of an organism is no longer bounded by methodological barriers, and it is now possible to fully sequence the whole genome of a strain to study individual genes, or to examine the genetic information by using different techniques. In fact, application of genomics is helping not only to provide a better understanding of the boundaries of genera and higher levels of classification, but also to refine our definition of the species concept. In addition, increased understanding of phylogeny is allowing to predict the genetic potential of microorganisms for biotechnological applications and adaptation to environmental changes. The present Research Topic on “Microbial Taxonomy, Phylogeny and Biodiversity” compiles a collection of papers covering the use of genomic sequence data in microbial taxonomy and systematics, including evolutionary relatedness of microorganisms; application of comparative genomics in systematic studies; or metagenomic approaches for biodiversity studies. We hope that this eBook incentives and encourages researchers for future discussions on microbial taxonomy and phylogenetics.
