About the Book

Short Protocols in Neuroscience: Systems and Behavioral Methods provides a portable and streamlined at-the-bench resource of systems and behavorial methods from the acclaimed Current Protocols in Neuroscience. It covers areas such as electrophysiological analysis of neural cells, the chemistry and pharmacology of the nervous system, behavioral analysis, and animal models of neurologic and psychiatric disorders.
