Beskrivning

This volume examines molecular approaches to neuromuscular disease research, with emphasis on such forefront topics as toxic model of disease, genetic lesions and behavioural neurology. It should be of interest to neuroscientists, clinical neurologists, biochemists, pathologists, psychologists, physiologists and immunologists working on neuromuscular diseases
