Annotation | This book provides medical professionals who investigate and treat brain diseases with research findings and their implications in genetics, epidemiology, pathology and pharmacology. It covers a range of important issues, from basic clinical science to pharmacology and social support. Disease mechanisms, including prions, are described - although the concern expressed about bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, or 'mad cow disease') developing in humans as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) has since been confirmed. |
