内容説明

The Third International Conference on Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders attracted over 1000 leading scientists involved in this dynamic field of research. This volume brings together a selection of stimulating presentations from the meeting, providing insights into research on Alzheimer's disease. The scope of the book extends to the following areas: diagnosis and clinical evaluation, biomarkers, structural and biochemical pathology, neuronal dysfunction, cytoskeletal protein alterations, amyloidosis, environmental toxins, blood brain barrier and immunological factors, animal and cellular models, epidemiology, pharmacological treatment and psycosocial management. The book is a major addition to the understanding of Alzheimer's disease and should appeal to neuroscientists everywhere.
