Sinopsis

The idea that the adult brain of mammals can generate new neurons has only recently been accepted by the scientific community, and research in this exciting area is now in full swing. Bringing together leading researchers in the field of adult neurogenesis, the 30 chapters in this monograph provide a valuable overview of this emerging field and lay the groundwork for future studies. Adult Neurogenesis includes discussions on neural stem cell biology; methods and models for studying adult neurogenesis; physiological and molecular processes and their control; related neurological diseases; and comparisons of neurogenesis in humans, birds, fish, and invertebrates. It will be of interest to all researchers in neurobiology as well as those in the medical field, as it has implications for understanding depression, epilepsy, and other psychiatric disorders.

Críticas

The study of adult neurogenesis has grown exponentially over the past decade. New papers are being published almost daily, making any attempt to summarize the field a daunting task. Nevertheless, the editors and authors of Adult Neurogenesis have managed to assemble a comprehensive review of current research. Organized into seven sections that encompass 30 chapters covering topics ranging from the detection of adult-generated neurons to their possible role in neurological and psychiatric disease, the book provides a truly panoramic picture. The editors acknowledge that the volume presents only a 'snapshot' of the current field...but its comprehensive nature makes it a valuable collection of knowledge and ideas in this burgeoning area of neuroscience.
