MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
In this book emerging questions of current glutamate research are addressed and new pathways which glutamte research may take in the future discussed. Since glutamate antagonists are still the major hope for the therapy of neurodegenerative disorders in humans, research activities dedicated towards the development of such novel drugs are the focus of public attention. The book comments on the most recent discoveries in the field of neuroprotection and neurodegeneration.
