Many advances have been made in the last decade in the understanding of the computational principles underlying olfactory system functioning. Neuromorphic Olfaction is a collaboration among European researchers who introduce novel computing paradigms and biomimetic artifacts for chemical sensing. Developing neuromorphic olfaction from conceptual points of view to practical applications, this crossdisciplinary book examines: • The biological components of vertebrate and invertebrate chemical sensing systems • The early coding pathways in the biological olfactory system • The advantages of nonspecific receptor populations in encoding odor intensity as well as odor identity • The redundancy and the massive convergence of the olfactory receptor neurons to the olfactory bulb • A neuromorphic approach to artificial olfaction in robots • Reactive and cognitive search strategies for olfactory robots • The implementation of a computational model of the mammalian olfactory system The book’s primary focus is on translating aspects of olfaction into computationally practical algorithms. These algorithms can help us understand the underlying behavior of the chemical senses in biological systems. They can also be translated into practical applications, such as robotic navigation and systems for uniquely detecting chemical species in a complex background.

Neuroanatomy / Neurophysiology Dopamine – Glutamate Interactions in the Basal Ganglia Edited by
Susan Jones University of Cambridge, UK
The basal ganglia are involved in complex brain functions, from voluntary movement control to learning and reward processing, and they are implicated in numerous neurological and psychiatric disorders. Information from the cerebral cortex and thalamus is conveyed to basal ganglia nuclei via glutamate release, while dopamine from the midbrain is released in close proximity to glutamate. At the heart of both function and dysfunction of basal ganglia circuits is the interaction of these two neurotransmitters, dopamine and glutamate. Elucidating the relationship between molecular and cellular effects and behavioural significance has been challenging, but in recent years, improved labeling, imaging, recording, and genetic manipulation approaches have yielded new information on how dopamine and glutamate interact to generate the circuit activity underpinning basal ganglia function. Dopamine–Glutamate Interactions in the Basal Ganglia synthesizes this recent research from the level of receptor molecules all the way to complex behaviours and disease. Current insights from research on individual neurons and synapses, detailed circuit analysis, and learning and action functions of the basal ganglia are presented against a historical perspective. The book also discusses compromised dopamine–glutamate interaction in disorders of basal ganglia function.
Atlas of the Neonatal Rat Brain Renuka Ramachandra and Thyagarajan Subramanian The Pennsylvania State University Hershey Medical Center, USA
Changes in the rat brain are rapid in the first two weeks after birth. Atlas of the Neonatal Rat Brain provides researchers in neurology, pharmacology, biology, and veterinary science with detailed color images of the normal developing rat brain. It presents photographic, histological illustrations of the anatomical features of the neonatal rat brain at postnatal (P)days P-1, P-7, and P-14. Each plate is a photomicrograph composite that shows the entire brain in sagittal and coronal sections at each stage. The P-1 section contains 30 coronal plates and 14 sagittal plates and the P-7 section includes 27 coronal plates and 24 sagittal plates. The final P-14 section shows 41 coronal plates and 21 sagittal plates. Each set consists of contiguous sections from individual animals, and selections were based on the structural variability represented. The sections are Nissl stained with Cresyl violet creating photomicrographs with high resolution and clarity. The structures are directly labeled on the images, making it easier to correlate data. Additional images are available as electronic resources for individuals who seek images not represented in this volume, and the electronic version allows labels to be removed so the atlas can be used as a teaching tool.

In the last two decades, scientists have developed a greater understanding of the neural processing of intraspecific chemical signals known as pheromones. Neurobiology of Chemical Communication explores the role of the chemical senses in mediating intraspecific communication. Providing an up-to-date outline of the most recent advances in the field, it presents data from laboratory and wild species, ranging from invertebrates to vertebrates, from insects to humans. The book examines the structure, anatomy, electrophysiology, and molecular biology of pheromones. It discusses how chemical signals work on different mammalian and non-mammalian species and includes chapters on insects, Drosophila, honey bees, amphibians, mice, tigers, and cattle. It also explores the controversial topic of human pheromones. An essential reference for students and researchers in the field of pheromones, this is also an ideal resource for those working on behavioral phenotyping of animal models and persons interested in the biology/ecology of wild and domestic species.
With recent studies using genetic, epigenetic, and other molecular and neurochemical approaches, a new era has begun in understanding the pathophysiology of suicide. Emerging evidence suggests that neurobiological factors are not only critical in providing potential risk factors but also present a promising approach to developing more effective treatment and prevention strategies. The Neurobiological Basis of Suicide discusses the most recent findings in suicide neurobiology.

Psychological, psychosocial, and cultural factors are important in determining the risk factors for suicide; however, they are often weak predictors and can be of less clinical use. Interestingly, cognitive characteristics are different among depressed suicidal and depressed nonsuicidal subjects, and could be involved in the development of suicidal behavior. The characterization of the neurobiological basis of suicide is in delineating the risk factors associated with suicide. This volume focuses on how and why these neurobiological factors are crucial in the pathogenic mechanisms of suicidal behavior and how these findings can be transformed into potential therapeutic applications.

Developmental Biology Atlas of Human Central Nervous System Development (Five-Volume Set) Shirley A. Bayer and Joseph Altman Indianapolis, Indiana, USA
From the 1960s through the 1980s, the work of legendary pioneers Shirley Bayer and Joseph Altman chronicled the development of the rat nervous system. In the 1990s, they shifted their attention to humans when they realized how little was known about the development of the human central nervous system. Many disorders resulting from abnormal neural deficits could be better understood if normal development was itself better known. The award-winning Atlas of Human Central Nervous System Development provides a complete record of the development of the human central nervous system from spinal cord gestation through the third trimester. Divided into five volumes, the contents of the atlases are organized by coronal, sagittal, and horizontal planes of sectioning to ensure that nearly every structure in the developing brain is represented pictorially. Each volume provides two-page spreads containing high-resolution black and white images on one side and ghost images on the other with unabbreviated labels to apprise readers of the exact structures identified. The final volume provides a concluding essay that summarizes major events of CNS development, while offering a theoretical account of the morphogenetic processes involved.

Edited by
Micah M. Murray CIBM, Lausanne, Switzerland
Rolland S. Parker
Mark T. Wallace
New York University School of Medicine, USA
Vanderbilt Brain Institute, Nashville, Tennessee, USA
It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging and neuroscience methods, The Neural Bases of Multisensory Processes details current understanding in the neural bases for these phenomena as studied across species, stages of development, and clinical statuses. The book begins by discussing anatomy—essential for understanding the neural substrates of multisensory processing. It describes neurophysiological bases and explains how multisensory stimuli can dramatically change the encoding processes for sensory information. Next, it reviews combinatorial principles and modeling, focusing on efforts to gain a better mechanistic handle on multisensory operations and their network dynamics. It explores clinical manifestations and explains how perception and action are affected by altered sensory experience. Other topics include development and plasticity, as well as attention and spatial representations. The last sections of the book focus on naturalistic multisensory processes in three separate contexts: motion signals, multisensory contributions to the perception and generation of communication signals, and how the perception of flavor is generated. The text provides a solid introduction for newcomers and a strong overview of the current state of the field for experts.

Neuropsychology / Neuropsychiatry Advances in the Neuroscience of Addiction Edited by
Cynthia M. Kuhn Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, USA
George F. Koob The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California, USA
Advances in the Neuroscience of Addiction provides an overview of the available and emerging approaches used to investigate the biologic mechanisms of drug addiction. It also delineates the research possibilities in relapse prevention. The book begins with the three main environmental stimuli that trigger relapse—classical conditioning, stress, and neuroadaptive dysregulation induced by chronic drug use. It then discusses chronic extracellular recording and intravenous drug self-administration procedures, which enable researchers to characterize the discharge patterns of single neurons during drugdirected instrumental behavior. Exploring advances in voltammetry and enzyme-linked biosensors for measuring glutamate, the book discusses the theoretical background and results of neuroimaging studies related to neuronal networks activated by drug-specific cues. It then presents drug self-administration studies implementing modern genetic approaches to manipulate target proteins in mice. The book illustrates how a neuroeconomic approach can inform studies of reward processing, particularly with addiction. It is a comprehensive introduction to the methodologies of the field for students and beginning researchers and an essential reference source for established investigators.
