Recenzje

"This book does a satisfactory job of serving as an introductory reference on traumatic brain injury and associated biomarkers available or in the works. My preferred reference is Textbook of Traumatic Brain Injury, 3rd edition, Silver et al. (American Psychiatric Association Publishing, 2019,) both for its breadth and detailed information. Brain Injury Medicine: Principles and Practice, 2nd edition, Zasler et al. (Springer Publishing Company, 2013) is also a good alternative. Although these two do not strictly cover TBI, they have better organization, more comprehensive information, and better readability." --Doody

Dr. Alan Wu is a Professor of Laboratory Medicine at the University of California at San Francisco. He is the Co-Director of the Core Laboratory at the Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital. His research is focused on biomarkers of cardiovascular disease, clinical toxicology, and pharmacogenomics. In this capacity, his clinical and research laboratory conducts testing for routine analytes in blood, urine and cerebral spinal fluid for electrolytes, metabolites, hormones, proteins, and biomarkers. His particular area of interest is in cardiac biomarkers for acute cardiac diseases. He received a B.S. in both Chemistry and Biology at Purdue University and a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry at the University of Illinois. He was a professor at the University of Texas and the University of Connecticut prior to his current position at UCSF. W. Frank Peacock IV, MD, FACEP, FACC is a Professor of Emergency Medicine and Vice Chair for Research in the department of Emergency Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, in Houston, Texas.
