Description
Brain research today is advancing at an increasingly rapid rate. The current state of neuropathology and its future course within brain research was the driving force behind The Niigata International Symposium. Today's neuropathological techniques are dynamic and fast approaching the molecular level, however, the spirit of the pioneers of neuropathology, foremost Dr. Harry M. Zimmerman, remains. Striving towards a pathogenesis of brain disease; elucidating the causes and mechanisms of disease through neuropathology is achieved by the expert contributions comprising this volume.
