Summary

This book is based on the development and application of AR by the editors, one of whom is the inventor of AR, together with members of a world-leading research center of AR. Contributions are made by a worldwide group of leading research scientists to summarize recent achievements in AR-IHC including numerous cutting edge issues for future research projects. Thus, this book is aimed not only at all practitioners in morphology, but also research scrientists who represent a wide spectrum of interest.

Author Biography

Shan-Rong Shi, MD, is Professor of Clinical Pathology at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California. He is the Associate Editor of the Journal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry, serves on the Editoral Board of Applied Immunohistochemisty and Molecular Morphology, and is also on the Overseas Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Pathology. Dr. Shi is the inventor of the antigen retrieval technique. Clive R. Taylor, MD, PhD, is Professor and former chairman of pathology, and Senior Associate Dean at the Keck School of Medicine. He is also Editor in Chief of Applied Immunohistochemistry and Molecular Morphology. Dr. Taylor is a world-renowned expert in immunohistochemistry and clinical pathology.
