The major advancements in biomedical research over the past 30 years have been based in the broad field of molecular biology DNA, RNA, and proteins are now routinely sequenced, altered, and their functions analyzed in great detail The in situ-based methodologies (immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization) were in their infancy 30 years ago Today, they are mainstream, as evidenced by the tens of thousands of peer review articles published each year that have used either methodology Still, much remains to be learned about how to maximize the power of immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization This book starts by building a foundation, assuming little or no prior knowledge in the area of molecular biology I hope that, at the end of the book, you will have a fount of knowledge that allows you to be very knowledgeable and capable in the in situ-based molecular pathology methods

This book provides multiple insights and support to the policy area of transport and land use It provides a focus on the ability of transport policy and land use policy to deliver not only the preferred urban form but also to do so with a level of accessibility for citizens to access the destinations of choice Although not constrained by sections, the book starts from the more general and works toward the specific Following scene setting to establish the links between urban form and accessibility and to explore the implications for sustainable planning in urban areas, chapters are grouped by topic The next group of chapters discusses the impact of governance and this is followed by a number of chapters broadly investigating urban form and accessibility in the context of travel behavior The following three groups of chapters discuss more specific areas: health, equity, and public transport network planning The concluding chapter is an in-depth consideration of the role of logistics in the determination of sustainable urban form In addition to summarizing the book’s chapters, this introduction provides a brief commentary on the influence of COVID-19 and identifies the areas for future research
