This user-friendly student text presents a comprehensive and novel approach to preparation for chemical research. It can be adopted as a textbook for research courses and also for individual study. The author provides both undergraduate and graduate students with the necessary information for launching a research study. Useful details such as ordering supplies and dealing with granting foundations are included. Even working with maintenance crews is discussed. The text saves research directors valuable time in the development of courses, and it even highlights foundational material with examples and case studies from the research world. It serves as the "go-to" text and first resource in the exciting field of chemical research.
Key Features
- An A-to-Z guide for anyone in chemical research, the text offers practical information grounded in scientific principles.
