Advanced Vibrational Spectroscopy for Biomedical Applications (Hardcover)

Vibrational biomedical spectroscopy, near field methods and many aspects of associated biophotonics have advanced significantly in recent years. Diagnostic and prognostic tools based on these new technologies have the potential to revolutionise our clinical systems leading to improved patient outcome, more efficient public services and significant economic savings for healthcare providers and society. This meeting brings together scientists researching vibrational spectroscopy and the development of clinically relevant diagnostic tools to discuss the current challenges and emerging opportunities in this field.

Faraday Discussions documents a long-established series of Faraday Discussion meetings which provide a unique international forum for the exchange of views and newly acquired results in developing areas of physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry and chemical physics. The papers presented are published in the Faraday Discussion volume together with a record of the discussion contributions made at the meeting. Faraday Discussions therefore provide an important record of current international knowledge and views in the field concerned. The latest (2012) impact factor of Faraday Discussions is 3.82.
