This book provides basic scientists a comprehensive overview of neurological and neuropsychiatric disease. Linking basic, translational, and clinical research, it covers the genetic, developmental, molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying all major categories of brain disorders. Topics include developmental, autoimmune, central, and peripheral neurodegeneration, infectious diseases, and diseases of higher function. It offers students, postdoctoral fellows, and researchers in diverse fields of neuroscience, neurobiology, neurology, and psychiatry the tools they need to obtain a basic background in the major neurological and psychiatric diseases.
