Cover of Raphael Pinaud & Liisa A. Tremere: Immediate Early Genes in Sensory Processing, Cognitive Performance and Neurological Disorders (PDF)

This book provides a compilation of the most up-to-date literature on the topic of immediate early genes (IEGs). It reviews and details experiments and theories that challenge the reader to expand their view on how IEG research is currently being used to advance our understanding of static and active brain circuits. In addition, the book explores roles of IEGs in clinical neuropathology.
