Stroke Genetics
Pankaj Sharma • James F. Meschia Editors 2013 Our understanding of the genetics of common diseases has come a long way in recent years. However, stroke—a classic example of an age-related common disorder— is playing catch up. The complexity of its diagnosis, the heterogeneity of the disease itself, and the lateness of its age of presentation have, perhaps, […]

Nash N. Boutros 2013 Since the time of Berger, psychiatrists have searched for the clinical significance of the electrical activity of the brain. Thus far they have learned little from the EEG to relate to diagnosis, treatment, or course of illness. There is even the likelihood that the standard EEG as a clinical and research tool in psychiatry […]

Lars Richter 2013 I express my gratitude to my supervisors who supported me during my research: Prof. Achim Schweikard for the freedom and trust to develop the project regarding my research interests; and PD Dr. Peter Trillenberg for the insights into the neuro-psychological aspects of brain stimulation which really inspired my interest for neuroscience. Many thanks also to Prof. Alexander […]

In relation to multiple sclerosis, it adopts the familiar meaning of “happening or developing gradually” and most doctors would recognize the phenotype of this common disease. Another meaning for the word is used when it relates to an idea or a person and is “favoring change […]

Fred H. Gage • Yves Christen Editors 2013 Studies of human brain and neuronal function in phenotypically normal as well as neurological and psychiatric patients have been performed using noninvasive imaging methods. However, the spatial and temporal limitations do not permit single cell/neuron resolution. In addition, genomic and molecular studies of neurological and psychiatric patients are conducted on postmortem […]
