The “Drunken” Synapse
Over the past two years, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) has begun a series of symposia to highlight the need for more integrative re search to understand how ethanol alters behavior. Much of the research to date has dealt either at the molecular level or has been whole animal studies. More studies are needed to build our base of knowledge between these two extremes by focusing more on cellular and network levels of organization. To begin this focus on the intermediate steps in this scheme, the NIAAA presented a satellite symposium entitled "Approaches for Studying Neural Circuits: Application to Al cohol Research" held at the Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience in Washing ton, DC, on November 16, 1996. This symposium brought together a group of scientists who presented their work on techniques used to study neural circuits. The proceedings of that symposium were published (Y. Liu (Ed.) Approaches for Studying Neural Circuits: Application to Alcohol Research. Alcohol Clin Exp Res 1998 Feb; 22: 1--{j6).
Methods in Alcohol-Related Neuroscience Research
Written by a panel of experts, Methods in Alcohol-Related Neuroscience Research not only provides information of a technical nature but also gives an overview of the many areas in investigating the effects of alcohol on the brain. It gives technical guidance for investigators doing research at the molecular, cellular, systems, and behavioral levels. These techniques include a wide variety of approaches, ranging from gene mapping and examination of molecular interactions of alcohol at the sub-cellular level to recording of neural activities in freely-behaving animals and imaging alcohol effects on the living human brain.
Schizophrenia: Human and Animal Studies
This volume contains research articles and reviews describing behavioral, cognitive, computational, genetic, and pharmacological studies of schizophrenia. Articles will include reports on the latest research on neural substrates of positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms in schizophrenia; computational theory; behavioral neurogenetic, and neuropsychological studies of schizophrenia. We also welcome research articles reporting effects of medications, including antipsychotics, on schizophrenia symptoms and behavior.
