From the reviews:
“This is pocket-sized guide for surgeons contemplating a career in translational or basic science research. It is intended as a primer for surgical trainees considering a scientific career. … Chapters are brief and clearly written, and use black-and-white line drawings and tables to good effect. All of the illustrations reproduce with good quality, including the occasional photographs and color drawings. … This is a quick but important read for surgeons in training considering a career in academic surgery with a significant laboratory component.” (David J. Dries, Doody’s Book Reviews, January, 2014)Academic surgeons play an essential role in advancing the field and improving the care of patients with surgical disease. As the Association for Academic Surgery (AAS) Fall Courses (www. aasurg. org) and international courses continue to evolve to address the rapidly expanding scope and complexity of academic surgery, there is a greater need for an accompanying textbook to supplement the material presented in the courses. Success in Academic Surgery: Basic Science is a unique and portable handbook that focuses on the basic and translational research. It includes new educational materials that are necessary to address not only the rapid evolution and rise of novel research methodologies in basic science and translational research, but also the changing environment for academic surgeons. Success in Academic Surgery: Basic Science is a valuable text for medical students, surgical residents, junior faculty and others considering a career in surgical research.
