Neuroscience of Deep Brain Stimulation: Research and Clinical Applications begins by introducing readers to the foundational research and historical background of DBS, including developmental experimental models for movement and psychiatric disorders. The second section reviews various clinical applications, including numerous and in-depth case studies. The final section identifies the mechanisms of action behind DBS, including cellular, metabolic, and neurochemical mechanisms. Internationally contributed, this book is an essential guide for anyone in the field of DBS.
