Description - The Genetics of Neurological Disorders by Billy Acord
The field of neurogenetics explores the role of genetics in neurological disorders. Any structural, electrical and biochemical abnormality in the brain, spinal cord or other nerves can be termed as a neurological disorder. Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease are a subset of neurological disorders. While the genetic influence on simple neurological diseases have been established, the genetics of complex disorders is a matter of significant research. Using genome wide association studies, the genetic variability within the human population and the associated link with diseases can be investigated. Research in neurogenetics strives to find strategies to reverse the progression of neurodegenerative disorders, which till date have no viable cure. The aim of this book is to present researches pertaining to the genetics of neurological disorders that can advance the understanding of neurological diseases and aid in their clinical management. It presents this complex study in the most comprehensible language. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.
