Overview

Understanding neurobiological systems requires the application of methods from many different areas. This work brings together a large number of techniques which are useful in exploring the functions of molecules and the resolution of neurobiological processes at the molecular level. Sections cover methods for the observation of single ionic channels, the analysis of second messenger systems and approaches involving molecular biology. Contributions have been assembled from experts in the field, and the techniques covered aim to appeal to both new and established researchers. Each chapter gives information on basic methods and direct practical assistance in designing and undertaking new experiments.
