Yellow Fever Virus

This volume covers a range of fundamental and advanced techniques and methods used by researchers to study the control of yellow fever. The chapters in this book cover a broad range of topics including epidemiological studies that track the spread of disease and sophisticated laboratory techniques that investigate the disease's pathogenesis. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on trouble shooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Cutting-edge and comprehensive, Yellow Fever Virus: Methods and Protocols is a valuable guide for students, researchers, and health professionals who are looking to understand and combat yellow fever. This book will inspire new discoveries, collaborations, and initiatives that will bring humanity closer to eradicating this disease.
