Neuropathology

Volume 145

Herausgegeben: Kovacs, Gabor G.; Alafuzoff, Irina

Beschreibung

Neuropathology, Volume 145, the latest release in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology series, includes all the major topics found in a typical neuropathology text, but differentiates itself by providing a thorough overview of the morphological background of neurological disorders for researchers and clinicians who do not specialize in pathology or its clinicopathological aspects. This volume offers strong coverage of brain imaging and advances in molecular pathology and genetics, and is particularly timely given the amount of neuropathological research currently taking place.

Autor

Dr. Gabor G. Kovacs is Associate Professor at the Medical University of Vienna, Vienna Austria. After receiving his MD degree his work has been devoted to neurology and neuropathology, i.e. the study of tissue alterations in diseases of the nervous system for diagnostic and research purposes. In addition to qualification in clinical neurology (1998) and neuropathology (2003), he received his PhD for Neuroscience in 2002. He has been involved in the surveillance of human prion disease for more than 20 years and currently leads a research team on neurodegenerative diseases. His achievements include first descriptions, characterization and pathogenic elucidation of several peculiar types of neurological diseases, like frontotemporal dementia with globular glial inclusions or another one affecting elderly individuals; biomarker research; comparative studies of brain ageing and brain development; and pathogenesis studies on prion diseases. He has more than 220 published papers and several book chapters (including the editing of a book on neurodegenerative diseases), covering a wide range of topics from clinical neurology to neuropathology and molecular neuroscience. He serves in the editorial board of several journals.
