A critical factor in cell-to-cell interactions is the presence in the cell membrane of highly specific ion channels controlled by specific receptors that are bound to, and activated by, a gamut of external hormones and neurotransmitters. Through both this action on ion channels, and action on other membrane components (such as G-proteins), extracellular signals alter intracellular events, usually through the mediation of second messengers, and so provide the basis for the transduction mechanism connecting extracellular signals with intracellular effectors. This volume deals with the various ways that such membrane function is controlled.

This volume discusses different approaches to workflows for large volume electron microscopy - from preparation of samples to their imaging in a variety of microscopes - in some cases also applying correlative techniques. The chapters in this book cover topics such as correlative super resolution and electron microscopy to detect molecules in their native cellular context; low-threshold access to serial section arrays; improving serial blockface SEM by focal charge compensation; FIBSEM analysis of interfaces between hard technical devices and soft neuronal tissue; and image processing for volume electron microscopy. In Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory. Cutting-edge and authoritative, Volume Microscopy: Multiscale Imaging with Photons, Electrons, and Ions is a valuable resource for novice and expert scientists interested in learning more about this evolving field.

First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
This book is the second volume of autobiographical essays by distinguished senior neuroscientists; it is part of the first collection of neuroscience writing that is primarily autobiographical. As neuroscience is a young discipline, the contributors to this volume are truly pioneers of scientific research on the brain and spinal cord. This collection of fascinating essays should inform and inspire students and working scientists alike. The general reader interested in science may also find the essays absorbing, as they are essentially human stories about commitment and the pursuit of knowledge. The contributors included in this volume are: Lloyd M. Beidler, Arvid Carlsson, Donald R. Griffin, Roger Guillemin, Ray Guillery, Masao Ito. Martin G. Larrabee, Jerome Lettvin, Paul D. MacLean, Brenda Milner, Karl H. Pribram, Eugene Roberts and Gunther Stent. Key Features * Second volume in a collection of neuroscience writing that is primarily autobiographical * Contributors are senior neuroscientists who are pioneers in the field
