With an ever-increasing elderly population and the resultant rising levels of dementia-related disorders, preclinical research based on animal models is pivotal to our knowledge of underlying molecular mechanisms and drug discovery aiming at the development of therapeutic strategies alleviating or preventing the neurological devastation. In Animal Models of Dementia, expert researchers provide contributions that stress the importance of extensively validated animal models in drug discovery and development in order to predict clinical activity. Beginning with general aspects of animal modeling, related ethical issues, and essential methodological considerations, the highly detailed volume then continues with various levels of model ...

Reviews for Animal Models of Dementia
From the book reviews: “A complete guide to lesion induced, genetic knockout, and phylogenetic approaches to dementias is catalogued. … I recommend this book for animal researcher for sure, and neurologists in particular.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, August, 2014) “A great add-on to more basic textbooks on mechanisms of dementia. The book not only nicely summarizes ongoing efforts ... Read more
