The Handbook of Parkinson’s Disease Mechanisms offers an integrated overview of the fundamental research devoted to understanding its causes and mechanisms, highlighting recent advances and clinical significance. With a strong focus on cellular and animal model studies, this book also examines the etiology, pathophysiology, epidemiology and underlying symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.
Written with an interdisciplinary approach, this book provides thorough research that will be of interest to researchers, clinicians and graduate students interested in neurodegenerative diseases.
