Description
Book SynopsisExclusively focused on research within the oral sciences Provides guidance in all aspects of clinical research, from essential principles to logistics Clarifies the framework of regulatory issues for researchers and study staff Presents emerging concepts in translational research.
Trade Review"This book should be bought by anyone having more than just an interest in research and who is involved in commissioning, funding, planning, undertaking or evaluating research. For everyone else, starting off with more generalised texts and using this book for information on specific subject areas would be more appropriate." (Primary Dental Care and Team in Practice, 1 April 2011)
