Developmental Neurobiology

<p>Developmental Neuroscience is one of the six core disciplines in Neuroscience, and yet no single volume, non-textbook reference exists on the market that provides researchers with more in-depth, high-level information on developmental neurobiology.  Currently, anyone interested in the field at a higher level must sift through review articles published frequently and the more specific handbooks that focus on aspects of development rather than the field as a whole. </p> <p>This reference is the first of its kind to fill this need. It pulls together the relevant articles on the topic from the 10-volume <b>Encyclopedia of Neuroscience</b> (Academic Press, 2008) and serves as an affordable and immediate resource for scientists, postdocs, graduate students with an interest beyond the basic textbook materials on the subject.</p><br><br><ul><li>The first and only comprehensive, single-volume reference for developmental neuroscience that goes beyond the basic textbook information</li><li>The 93 chapters cover topics ranging from cell fate determination, path finding, synapse generation, neural stem cells, to neurodegeneration and regeneration, carefully selected from the <i>Encyclopedia of Neuroscience</i> by one of the great developmental neuroscientists, Greg Lemke</li><li>The best researchers in the field provide their conclusions in the context of the latest experimental results</li></ul>
