Stereotaxic and Chemoarchitectural Atlas of the Brain of the Common Marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)

Written for international neuroscientists engaged in research of neurological disorders such as Parkinson'¬"s disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Alzheimer'¬"s disease, as well as professionals working in laboratories conducting pharmacokinetic studies, this book provides a comprehensive atlas of the marmoset brain. The atlas provides precise stereotaxic co-ordinates, functionally important chemoarchitectural information, and estimates for the numbers of neurons within important brain regions and nuclei. It also provides information for assessing the efficacy of treatments in marmoset models. The book includes a DVD that contains a java program displaying all images, data and tables used throughout the atlas, upon purchase.
