Reihe: Research and Perspectives in Neurosciences

This volume surveys the recent advances and provides an integrative view of molecular, cellular, and systems level mechanisms underlying cognitive processes in both animals and humans. Current and future avenues are discussed by distinguished scientists. They provide an overview of the underlying neurobiology of cognitive processes, and focus on clinical and therapeutic aspects surrounding impairments associated with disorders that affect cognition.
