توضیحات

Provides a highly visual, readily accessible introduction to the main events that occur during neural development and their mechanisms

Building Brains: An Introduction to Neural Development, 2nd Editiondescribes how brains construct themselves, from simple beginnings in the early embryo to become the most complex living structures on the planet. It explains how cells first become neural, how their proliferation is controlled, what regulates the types of neural cells they become, how neurons connect to each other, how these connections are later refined under the influence of neural activity, and why some neurons normally die. This student-friendly guide stresses and justifies the generally-held belief that a greater knowledge of how nervous systems construct themselves will help us find new ways of treating diseases of the nervous system that are thought to originate from faulty development, such as autism spectrum disorders, epilepsy, and schizophrenia.

A concise, illustrated guide focusing on core elements and emphasizing common principles of developmental mechanisms, supplemented by suggestions for further reading Text boxes provide detail on major advances, issues of particular uncertainty or controversy, and examples of human diseases that result from abnormal development Introduces the methods for studying neural development, allowing the reader to understand the main evidence underlying research advances Offers a balanced mammalian/non-mammalian perspective (and emphasizes mechanisms that are conserved across species), drawing on examples from model organisms like the fruit fly, nematode worm, frog, zebrafish, chick, mouse and human Associated Website includes all the figures from the textbook and explanatory movies Filled with full-colorartwork that reinforces important concepts; an extensive glossary and definitions that help readers from different backgrounds; and chapter summaries that stress important points and aid revision,Building Brains: An Introduction to Neural Development, 2nd Editionis perfect for undergraduate students and postgraduates who may not have a background in neuroscience and/or molecular genetics.

‘This elegant book ranges with ease and authority over the vast field of developmental neuroscience. This excellent textbook should be on the shelf of every neuroscientist, as well as on the reading list of every neuroscience student.’
–Sir Colin Blakemore, Oxford University

‘With an extensive use of clear and colorful illustrations, this book makes accessible to undergraduates the beauty and complexity of neural development. The book fills a void in undergraduate neuroscience curricula.’
–Professor Mark Bear, Picower Institute, MIT.

ترجمه ماشینی :

مقدمه ای بسیار بصری و به آسانی از رویدادهای اصلی که در طول رشد عصبی رخ می دهند و مکانیسم های آنها ارائه می دهد

ساختن مغزها: مقدمه ای بر توسعه عصبی، ویرایش دوم< /i> توضیح می‌دهد که چگونه مغزها خود را می‌سازند، از آغاز ساده در جنین اولیه تا تبدیل شدن به پیچیده‌ترین ساختارهای زنده روی این سیاره. توضیح می‌دهد که سلول‌ها ابتدا چگونه عصبی می‌شوند، چگونه تکثیر آنها کنترل می‌شود، چه چیزی انواع سلول‌های عصبی را تنظیم می‌کند، چگونه نورون‌ها به یکدیگر متصل می‌شوند، چگونه این اتصالات بعداً تحت تأثیر فعالیت عصبی پالایش می‌شوند، و چرا برخی از نورون‌ها معمولاً می‌میرند. . این راهنمای دانش‌آموز پسند بر این باور عمومی تأکید می‌کند و آن را توجیه می‌کند که دانش بیشتر در مورد چگونگی ساخت سیستم‌های عصبی به ما کمک می‌کند تا راه‌های جدیدی برای درمان بیماری‌های سیستم عصبی پیدا کنیم که تصور می‌شود از رشد معیوب سرچشمه می‌گیرند، مانند اختلالات طیف اوتیسم. ، صرع، و اسکیزوفرنی.
