Dr Cousin, who works at Edinburgh University, is due to publish his research next month in the Journal of
Neurochemistry.
A wealth of information on the neuroanatomy,
neurochemistry, and neurophysiology of sleep provides a firm foundation for a genetic approach to studies of sleep.
The author, a special education professor, and his colleagues present recent research from psychiatry, genetics, neurobiology, and
neurochemistry, and use those findings to outline the nature of the disorder, describe accurate means of diagnosis, and dispel many myths.
The database draws from literature in a broad range of disciplines, including biological psychiatry, neuropsychophannacology,
neurochemistry, drug research and treatment, molecular biology, clinical medicine, and psychology.
In the modern world, "wants" and "feelings" are treated as if they exist in some separate, transcendent reality that can magically interact with brain
neurochemistry.
This dictionary attempts to include all technical terms that a psychologist is likely to encounter in reading about the subject, including terms from psychiatry, neurology, neurophysiology,
neurochemistry, ethology, sociobiology, genetics, linguistics, artificial intelligence, sociology, anthropology, statistics, philosophy, and other disciplines.
Many contemporary scientists insist that thinking, willing, consciousness, and so on (long attributed to the immaterial part of a human called the soul) can be explained by
neurochemistry, molecular biology, or that new interdisciplinary field, neuroscience.
This may help us to learn more about the
neurochemistry of paranoid disorders, which is poorly understood at this time.
What they couldn't offer were many facts about
neurochemistry.
These advances have been in three main areas: brain imaging,
neurochemistry and molecular biology.
The chapters are organized into eight sections dealing with clinical phenomenology, epidemiology, comorbid conditions,
neurochemistry and neuropathology, genetics, neuroimaging, pharmacological treatments, and nonpharmacological interventions, as well as a final perspective section written by the editors with an additional participant.
The Volume 1 aim is to review in depth progress in
neurochemistry, neuropsychology and neuropathology of the dementias and schizophrenia.
