Methods of Behavior Analysis in Neuroscience
Excerpt
With contributions from more than 40 field specialists, Methods of Behavior Analysis in Neuroscience reflects six years of updates to its first bestselling edition and elucidates new behavioral approaches that are quickly becoming field standards.
This second edition features new material on the relevance of transgenic mouse models for Alzheimer's disease, behavioral methods for assessing the cognitive impairment associated with major psychotic disorders, the revival of the scopolamine reversal model for assessing the clinical relevance of new AD drugs, and new approaches to assessing the cognitive impairment in aged mice.
