Acerca del autor
Sarah K. Highlander is Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Virology and Microbiology and The Human Genome Sequencing Center at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. She received her Bachelor of Science from the University of Michigan and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Medical Microbiology from the Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences at New York University. She performed her postdoctoral research at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston. Her current research interests are in microbial genomics, metagenomics related to gastrointestinal disease and bacteriotherapy. Her laboratory has been involved since 2007 in the NIH Human Microbiome Project (HMP) where a primary focus of her lab has been the cultivation of strains, followed by sequencing and annotation of “reference genomes” to contribute to a catalog of strains that serves as a database against which human metagenomic data are compared. Her group also played a key role in processing and characterizing samples collected from the HMP healthy cohort and she developed “mock” metagenomic communities to aid in benchmarking protocols for HMP DNA extraction, sequencing and sequence evaluation. Francisco Rodriguez-Valera is professor of Microbiology in the University Miguel Hernandez in San Juan de Alicante Spain. He has been working on microbial diversity for over 30 years and was among the pioneers that started using metagenomics in Microbiology with iconic studies such as the deep Mediterranean Sea or the Amazon River. He has described multitude of new microbes, including the new Ca. Actinomarinidae, the smallest free living marine prokaryote, that turned out to be a member of the Actinobacteria, classically considered mycelial soil inhabitants. He has also advanced the Constant-Diversity model to explain genomic diversity in prokaryotes and described recently more than 1000 different genomes of marine viruses using metagenomic approaches. Bryan White is currently a Professor of Animal Sciences in the Institute for Genomic Biology and Director, Mayo Clinic/University of Illinois Strategic Alliance for Technology-Based Healthcare at the University of Illinois. He received his Bachelor of Science at Virginia Wesleyan College and his Ph.D. in Microbiology from the Medical College of Virginia and was a NIH Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Oral Biology at the University of Michigan. His major research interests are in using microbial genomics, metagenomics and microbial ecology to understand host-microbe interactions in vertebrates. These interests are in production species such as cattle, swine and poultry and in models of disease for humans. With respect to productions species, he has studied models that address nutrient utilization, primarily the rumen fiber-adherent microbiome as a model for improving forage utilization. He has also investigated the roles of beneficial and pathogenic organisms and antibiotic use in domestic production animals,as well as approaches that will enable the detection of diseases in livestock and provide critical genetic contexts for understanding food safety. He uses human and non-human primate models of disease to link microbiomes to important clinical outcomes in gastrointestinal and women’s reproductive tract diseases.

Thank you for taking an interest in one of our books. Please see the "Shipping Terms" section below for details on our shipping and returns policies. We are a mail-order only bookstore located in Bellingham, WA specializing in modern out-of-print books of all genres. If you are an international customer, we ship internationally by UPS Worldwide Expedited. The average delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks, and each shipment can be fully tracked at www.ups.com. For international shipments, it is important to provide a valid phone number with your order. Most international shipments are delivered within 2 weeks. The only exceptions are when the customer has not provided a valid phone number and there are import duties which UPS needs to collect before making final delivery. In those cases, the package will be held at a nearby UPS Access Point until the customer either picks up the package in person or makes arrangements over the phone with UPS to release the package for final delivery. Our shipping charge only covers international postage. Import duties vary widely by country and are additional. We thoroughly clean all books that we offer for sale and do all basic book-repairs ourselves. Basic repairs include repairing slanted bindings, applying additional glue to hinges that have become excessively loose, hinge-tape repairs for damaged hinges, minor binding split repairs, gluing small tears in exterior of covers, removal (as much as possible) of black marker marks to covers of ex-library books, removal of smaller non-permanent stickers, straightening of minor bowing to covers or spine, and applying jacket protectors to books with torn or fragile jackets or for especially pristine or collectible books. We do not do major binding repairs, and any un-repairable binding splits or general weakness in binding will be noted. Any significant repairs such as a hinge-tape repair will also be noted. These repairs do not usually change the underlying condition grade, but do make the book more presentable. Some books are beyond help and will be listed as "Fair/Acceptable" or "Poor". Our books are graded conservatively with library books never graded above "Good" and used books rarely graded above "Very Good". Below is a list of the condition grades we use, in descending order: New/Fine Like New/Near Fine Very Good++ Very Good+ Very Good Minus Good++ Good+ Good Fair-to-Good Fair/Acceptable Poor Very Poor We try to grade accurately, but condition grades are often subjective, so please consider also any condition notes and book photos (when available) before placing an order. All book photos posted to our listings are actual photos of the book offered for sale and have been taken by us.…
