The inside story of an unprecedented feat of science and business.

This book provides a broad and nuanced overview of the achievements and legacy of Professor William (“Bill”) Goddard in the field of computational materials and molecular science. Leading researchers from around the globe discuss Goddard’s work and its lasting impacts, which can be seen in today’s cutting-edge chemistry, materials science, and biology techniques. Each section of the book closes with an outline of the prospects for future developments.

This detailed volume collects many of the common experimental approaches used to study myogenesis. It covers subjects ranging from isolation and purification protocols, manipulation of muscle cells, transcriptomics and proteomics, metabolism and exercise, and tissue engineering. Presented methods involve different species, including human, bovine, Atlantic salmon, rats, mice, larval zebrafish, and Drosophila melanogaster. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
