Provides a timely overview of critical advances in molecular and cellular neurobiology covers
key methodologies driving progress and highlights key future directions for research on
neuronal injury and neurodegeneration relevant to neuronal brain pathologies. The editors bring
together contributions from internationally recognized workers in the field to provide an up to
date account of how and why molecular and cellular neurobiology is such an important area for
clinical neuroscience. Understanding the molecular aspects of a number of neurodegenerative
conditions such as Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease for the purpose of improving patient
management remains a major challenge of neurobiology be it from the basic or clinical
perspective. A strategic evaluation of research contributions and the power of modern methods
will help advance knowledge over the next years.
