Handbook of Brain Microcircuits, Hardcover by Shepherd, Gordon M., . (EDT); Grillner, Sten, ., . (EDT), ISBN 0190636114, ISBN-13 9780190636111, Brand New, Free P&P in the UKUpdated and revised, the second edition of<em> Handbook of Brain Microcircuits</em> covers the functional organization of 50 brain regions. This now-classic text uses an interdisciplinary approach to examine the integration of structure, function, electrophysiology, pharmacology, brain imaging, and<br>behavior. Through uniquely concise and authoritative chapters by leaders in their fields, the <em>Handbook of Brain Microcircuits</em> synthesizes many of the new principles of microcircuit organization that are defining a new era in understanding the brain connectome, integrating the major neuronal pathways<br>and essential microcircuits with brain function. <br> <br>New to the Second Edition:<br>· Insights into new regions of the brain through canonical microcircuit diagrams for each region<br>· Latest methodology in optogenetics, neurotransmitter uncaging, computational models of neurons and microcircuits, serial ultrastructure reconstructions, cellular and regional imaging<br>· Extrapolated data from new genetic tools and understandings applied to microcircuits in the mouse and Drosophila<br>· Common principles across vertebrate and invertebrate microcircuit systems, one of the key goals of modern neuroscience<br>
