The new edition delivers practical, timely guidance for toxicologic pathologists involved in drug discovery and development. The introductory material has been condensed into two concise, well-organized chapters. These two concept chapters introduce pharmaceutical R&D, the pathologist’s role within the process, and the key scientific disciplines that partner with the pathologist. In this revision, the organ system chapters feature more consistent commentary on the molecular mechanism of action, human translational relevance, and the regulatory implications of pathological findings described therein.
Key features:
Helps scientists understand both spontaneously occurring and compound-related pathological findings
Adds three highly respected scientists to the editorial team
Provides more uniform commentary and guidance across organ system chapters
