Description for Animal Models of Epilepsy
Hardback. In this book, investigators examine several novel models of epilepsy in mice as well as in genetically tractable "simple" species. This is an ideal guide for scientists who wish to expand our understanding of the pathogenesis of this neurological disorder. Editor(s): Baraban, Scott C. Series: Neuromethods. Num Pages: 276 pages, 39 black & white illustrations, 19 colour illustrations, 9 black & white tables, biograph. BIC Classification: MJN; PSAN; PSVL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 260 x 193 x 18. Weight in Grams: 748.
Epilepsy is fairly unique among the various neurological disorders as it provides the neuroscientist with almost boundless opportunities to examine basic neurobiological mechanisms. Not surprisingly, advances in epilepsy research are closely tied to dev- opment of innovative neurobiological methodologies. In many cases the practical application of these innovations - especially in the context of a neurological disorder with anatomical, molecular, electrophysiological, and behavioral components such as epilepsy - can be found in the development of new animal models. In turn, our understanding of the pathogenesis of epilepsy (and new therapy development) greatly benefits from these models. Taking advantage of transgenic ... Read more

Reviews for Animal Models of Epilepsy
From the reviews: “As a clinical epileptologist interested in fundamental aspects of epilepsy, I obtained a thorough update on the several frontiers of current epilepsy research from this lucid volume. Basic scientists will profit from these 14 distinct and succinct reviews that also treat methodology and pitfalls in detail. Thus, this work is recommended for basic science and clinical ... Read more
