Medical Microbiology by Michael Ford
Medical Microbiology covers a range of key laboratory techniques used in the diagnosis of human diseases caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi. The text is written specifically for biomedical science students and uses case studies throughout to highlight the clinical relevance of the techniques being described.
This third edition is a valuable update and just like the previous editions, I believe it will also be a useful textbook for students of Biomedical Sciences* Sudeshna Saha, University of California San Diego Health, USA, Microbiology Society *
I am very pleased to see the new chapter on whole genome sequencing * Dr Lewis Bingle, University of Sunderland *
[The] best text book around for undergraduate Biomedical Sciences students * Dr Cheryl Walter, University of Hull *
[I] would certainly adopt the third [edition]... I think the inclusion of chapter on whole genome sequencing is very welcome * Dr Christopher Ring, Middlesex University *

Dr Michael Ford has worked in Microbiology for over 30 years and was appointed Microbiology Laboratory Manager for the Newcastle Upon Tyne NHS Foundation Trust in 2014. Michael has a wide experience in all areas of diagnostic service provision. He has recently worked very closely with Public Health England which resulted in the transfer of their Newcastle services into the Trust. A key part of this was the setting up of a new molecular diagnostic service for Newcastle. His main research area involved developing novel methods of bacterial identification, which resulted in a number of publications and two successful patents for the development of novel selective media. He has been a lecturer at Northumbria University on both the BSc and MSc Microbiology programmes. Michael has also been a key member of the IBMS Scientific Advisory Panel for Microbiology and IBMS Deputy Chief Examiner.
