ABSTRACT
Unique in its coverage of such an extensive range of methods, Neuroscience Methods: A Guide for Advanced Students provides easy-to-understand descriptions of the many different techniques that are currently being used to study the brain at the molecular and cellular levels. This valuable reference text will help rescue undergraduate and postgraduate students from continuing bewilderment at the methods sections of current neuroscience publications.
Topics covered include in vivo and in vitro preparations, electrophysiological, histochemical, hybridization and genetic techniques, measurement of cellular ion concentrations, methods of drug application, production of antibodies, expression systems, and neural grafting.
