- Summary:
- This volume discusses the latest experimental and clinical approaches to study seizures and epilepsy. Chapters in this book cover detailed protocols for ex vivo and in vitro experimental models and widely-used in vivo (acute and chronic seizure) models in epilepsy research. Chapters also cover techniques to screen the effective leads for the treatment of refractory seizures of pharmacoresistant epilepsy and invertebrate, non-mammalian models. In the 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 practical, Experimental and Translational Methods to Screen Drugs Effective Against Seizures and Epilepsy is a valuable resource for researchers, in both industry and academia, interested in learning about this important and developing field.
