Diagnosis, Management and Modeling of Neurodevelopmental Disorders: The Neuroscience of Development is a comprehensive reference on the diagnosis and management of neurodevelopment and associated disorders. This book discusses the mechanisms underlying neurological development and provides readers with a detailed introduction to the neural connections and complexities in biological circuitries, as well as the interactions between genetics, epigenetics and other micro-environmental processes. It also examines pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions of development-related conditions. Factors Affecting Neurodevelopment: Genetics, Neurology, Behavior, and Diet is a comprehensive reference on the genetic and behavioral features associated with proper and abnormal development. This book discusses the mechanisms underlying neurological development and provides readers with a detailed introduction to the neural connections and complexities in biological circuitries, as well as the physiological, behavioral, molecular, and cellular features of neurodevelopment. It also examines in vitro and in vivo modelling of development with stem cells and model systems. Diagnosis, Management and Modeling of Neurodevelopmental Disorders: The Neuroscience Of Development: Provides the most comprehensive coverage of the broad range of topics related to the neuroscience of development Features sections on diagnosis and biomarkers Contains in each chapter an abstract, key facts, mini dictionary of terms, and summary points to aid in understanding Focuses on neurodevelopmental disorders and environmental factors that influence neural development Includes more than 500 illustrations and tables Factors Affecting Neurodevelopment: Genetics, Neurology, Behavior, and Diet: Provides the most comprehensive coverage of the broad range of topics related to the neuroscience of development Features sections on the genetics of developmental conditions and accompanying behavior Contains in each chapter an abstract, key facts, mini dictionary of terms, and summary points to aid in understanding Focuses on neurodevelopmental disorders and environmental factors that influence neural development Includes more than 500 illustrations and tables INDICE: Diagnosis, Management and Modeling of Neurodevelopmental Disorders: The Neuroscience Of Development: I.
