• New edition of the work in the field of clinical biochemistry that year after year is becoming a fundamental tool for clinician decision-making, since a large part of them are based on the data provided by the laboratory that they need by an adequate interpretation taking into account the different preanalytical and analytical factors that may influence them. One of the most important novelties in clinical biochemistry is that it has progressively incorporated techniques typical of molecular biology and proteomics. • The third edition is masterfully directed and coordinated by Dr. Álvaro González Hernández, Professor of Biochemistry, Specialist in Clinical Biochemistry and Head of the Biochemistry Service at the University of Navarra Clinic, who on this occasion, It has had the collaboration of 24 professionals from different fields related to clinical biochemistry (Pharmacy and Nutrition, Clinical Analysis, Medical Genetics and Genomics) belonging to different universities and hospitals.
