Microbial Endocrinology Interkingdom Signaling in Infectious Disease and Health /

About this book Microbial endocrinology represents a newly emerging interdisciplinary field that is formed by the intersection of the fields of neurobiology and microbiology. It is the intent of this book to introduce a new perspective to the current understanding not only of the factors that mediat...
