Molecular mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases [electronic resource] / [edited by] Marie-Francoise Chesselet.

With the unprecedented identification of new mutation mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases and the emergence of common mechanisms among diseases that were once considered unrelated, neurobiologists are poised for the development of new therapies based on high throughput screenings and a better u...
