Brain Slices in Basic and Clinical Research
Brain Slices in Basic and Clinical Research describes advancements in the field of brain function and dysfunction through use of central nervous system slice preparations. Topics are authored by leading scientists and include the following: Mechanisms of synaptic plasticity as the basis of memory processes Chaos and synaptic variability Brain calcium currents Glutamate receptors Pathophysiology of excitotoxins Cerebral hypoxia-ischemia Neuronal injury Free radicals Optical methods of measuring brain metabolism Voltammetry in brain slices Calcium imaging Patch-clamp recording and application of macromolecules through patch-clamp pipettes in brain slices Intracellular double labeling of various neuronal populations Use of brain slices in teaching neurophysiological methods Most of the topics are published in book format for the first time, and some of the techniques are more fully detailed than in any other book.
New Directions in Forensic Psychology: Applying Neuropsychology, Biomarkers and Technology in Assessment & Intervention
New trends in research, assessment and treatment are currently visible in the forensic field in three relatively separate areas: the use of neuropsychology, biomarkers, and wearables and VR-technology in forensic mental health. These areas individually can make a valuable contribution to improving forensic assessments and treatment but combined they might even have a greater impact. For example, heart rate variability (a biomarker) can be visualized during Virtual Reality (VR) scenarios to increase patients’ insights into their physiological responses. With our topic 'New Directions in Forensic Psychology: Applying Neuropsychology, Biomarkers and Technology in Assessment and Intervention’ we hope to offer more insight into the state of scientific developments in the aforementioned areas as they relate to forensic psychology. As a result, we hope to be able to pinpoint lacking knowledge and offer suggestions for further research.
The Invisible Rainbow
The most misunderstood force driving health and disease The story of the invention and use of electricity has often been told before, but never from an environmental point of view. The assumption of safety, and the conviction that electricity has nothing to do with life, are by now so entrenched in the human psyche that new research, and testimony by those who are being injured, are not enough to change the course that society has set. Two increasingly isolated worlds--that inhabited by the majority, who embrace new electrical technology without question, and that inhabited by a growing minority, who are fighting for survival in an electrically polluted environment--no longer even speak the same language. In The Invisible Rainbow, Arthur Firstenberg bridges the two worlds. In a story that is rigorously scientific yet easy to read, he provides a surprising answer to the question, "How can electricity be suddenly harmful today when it was safe for centuries?"

Progress in the Reduction, Refinement, and Replacement of Animal Experimentation
Hardbound. New legislation enacted in many countries and regions of the world during the 1980s requires that laboratory animal use be reduced, refined and replaced wherever possible, for ethical and scientific reasons, in line with the Three Rs concept put forward by W.M.S. Russell and R.L. Bnurch in 1958, in The Principles of Humane Experimental Technique. This Congress provided an opportunity for a celebration of the 40th anniversary of the publication of this book, and for a coming together of many of those who are actively pursuing the implementation of the Three Rs in the interests of good science and humane science.Current uses and future prospects for the use of laboratory animal procedures and non-animal methods in the biomedical sciences are considered in five themes: the development of replacement alternative methods; the validation and regulatory acceptance of alternative test methods; reduction alternatives and the testi
Un lungo fortissimo abbraccio
In un futuro imprecisato David Costello, vittima di una malattia degenerativa incurabile, subisce un'operazione molto particolare: il suo cervello viene trapiantato nel corpo di un altro. Di colpo ha di nuovo vent'anni, ed è bello, forte e sano. Ma non è più se stesso. Gli amici e la figlia non lo riconoscono e sua moglie non ha più neanche la forza di abbracciare quel giovane estraneo che le gira per casa. Ma, quel che è peggio, neanche David riesce a ritrovarsi. È ancora capace di essere il vecchio David, di amare ciò che lui amava, di provare quel che provava? Oppure quel corpo sconosciuto si sta impadronendo di lui, schiudendogli davanti una vita nuova, nuovi sogni, un nuovo amore? Una favola impossibile e dolcissima, un viaggio dentro il rovello dell'identità, alla ricerca di se stessi.
