Free Download Introduction to Scientific Research Projects e-book PDF
Introduction to Scientific Research Projects is a concise introduction to the undergraduate scientific research project. It is primarily aimed at undergraduate students reading medicine, nursing and midwifery and subjects allied to health such as Biomedical Science who will be expected to undertake some kind of research project as part of their degree. Exploring the different types of projects, and individual components of dissemination (poster, oral, viva, and thesis), by using tips, example boxes, and analogies, it makes an easy and enjoyable read for both students and supervisors alike.
Author
Dr Graham Basten is Associate Head of the School
of Allied Health Sciences at De Montfort University (UK). He holds a PhD
from the UK government’s Institute of Food Research and has researched
and lectured extensively over the past 10 years on clinical
biochemistry, nutrition and folate at the Universities of Sheffield and
Nottingham (UK). He is a De Montfort University Teacher Fellow and has
been nominated for the Vice Chancellor’s Distinguished Teaching Award.
As a senior lecturer in Clinical Chemistry, and as leader of the
undergraduate Projects module, this expertise and experience is
transferred to the concise introductory textbooks written for Book Boon.
