内容説明

International experts review advances in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of both normal and abnormal neurological functions and their immediate and future applications in clinical neurology. The 'new genetics' also has many applications in other neurological problems, including oncology, urology, development, growth and differentiation and chemical neurotransmission. Clinicians need to understand the basis of molecular genetics - techniques such as recombiant DNA technology and genetic linkage studies. These have immediate clinical relevance, for example in the development of therapeutic products, in the presymptomatic and prenatal detection of genes carriers, so important in genetic counselling and in the understanding of disease pathophysiology.
