The Cerebral Cortex in Neurodegenerative and Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Experimental
Approaches to Clinical Issues focuses on how pre-clinical investigations are addressing the
clinical issues surrounding the involvement of the cerebral cortex in selected conditions of
the nervous system including Alzheimer's Disease Parkinson's addiction and cardiovascular
dysregulation. Each chapter is written by an expert in his her field who provides a
comprehensive review of the clinical manifestations of cortical involvement and experimental
techniques currently available to tackle cortical issues in disease. Thus this present title
provides a link between cortical clinical problems and investigational approaches to help
foster future research with high translational value.
