With an estimated global incidence of 11 million patients per year, research involving ischemic stroke requires the collection and analysis of massive data sets affected by innumerable variables. Landmark studies that have historically shaped the foundation of our understanding of ischemic stroke and the development of management protocols have been derived from only a miniscule fraction of a percent of the entire population due to feasibility and capability. Machine learning provides an opportunity to capture data from an extraordinarily larger cohort size, which can be applied to training models to formulate algorithms to forecast outcomes with unparalleled accuracy and efficiency. The par...
The pharmaceutical industry is one of today’s most dynamic and complex industries, involving commercialization of cutting-edge scientific research, a huge web of stakeholders (from investors to doctors), multi-stage supply chains, fierce competition in the race to market, and a challenging regulatory environment. The stakes are high, with each new product raising the prospect of spectacular success—or failure. Worldwide revenues are approaching $1 trillion; in the U.S. alone, marketing for pharmaceutical products is, itself, a multi-billion dollar industry. In this volume, the editors showcase contributions from experts around the world to capture the state of the art in research, analys...

Time Distortions in Mind brings together current research on aspects of temporal processing in clinical populations, in the ultimate hope of elucidating the interdependence between perturbations in timing and disturbances in the mind and brain. Such research may inform not only typical psychological functioning, but may also elucidate the psychological consequences of any pathophysiological differences in temporal processing. This collection of current knowledge on temporal processing in clinical populations is an excellent reference for the student and scientist interested in the topic, but it also serves as the stepping-stone to share ideas and push forward the advancement in understanding...
Functional neuroimaging has greatly enhanced our knowledge of the brain, and has, up to now, guided the field of cognitive neuroscience. For the latest volume in this prestigious series, Nancy Kanwisher and John Duncan have brought together world leaders in cognitive neuroscience to present a groundbreaking, state-of-the-art account of current imaging research in visual cognition. Topics include funtional and anatomical modularity of the visual system; mechanisms of object and pattern recognition; neural plasticity in evolution, development, and learning; selective attention to visual features, objects, and locations; sensorimotor control. Together these chapters give a fascinating insight into how current imaging research addressed not just the "where" but more importantly the "how" of our brain's understanding of the visual world. Finally, in his conclusion, Michael Posner considers what we have achieved so far with neuroimaging, and looks to the future and the next steps in our quest to understand brain function. Superbly edited and full of stunning color images, this will be one of the key publications in the field of cognitive neuroscience.
