内容説明

The goal of this book is to provide a neurobehavioral context for the ever-growing list of single and multiple genes that play a role in brain structure and function. The chapters present strategies and techniques for the rigorous analysis of the genetic bases of brain and behavior, and discusses the practical and theoretical means to address these topics and provide the researcher with fine techniques for dissecting the genomic components of brain structure and behavioral function. This volume concentrates on techniques and approaches that have been largely developed with the house mouse, while providing a glimpse of genetic research with other species, such as the fruit fly, nematode worm and seaslug. Given the aim of doing genetic analysis of brain and behavior, this volume is an excellent overview of current techniques and recent innovations.
