Translational Neuroscience
Translational Neuroscience offers a far-reaching and
insightful series of perspectives on the effort to bring
potentially revolutionary new classes of therapies to the clinic,
thereby transforming the treatment of human nervous system
disorders. Great advances in the fields of basic neuroscience,
molecular biology, genomics, gene therapy, cell therapy, stem
cell biology, information technology, neuro devices,
rehabilitation and others over the last 20 years have generated
unprecedented opportunities to treat heretofore untreatable
disorders of the nervous system. This book provides a
wide-ranging yet detailed sample of many of these efforts,
together with the methods for pursuing clinical translation and
assessing clinical outcomes. Among the topics covered are
Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, multiple
sclerosis, epilepsy, motor neuron disease, pain, inborn errors of
metabolism, brain tumors, spinal cord injury, neuroprosthetics,
rehabilitation and clinical trial design/consideration.
