Description 1 online resource Summary The series CNS Neurotransmitters and Neuromodulators is destined to be the definitive reference work on the physiology and pharmacology of the central nervous system. Written by an outstanding group of international authors, chapters cover a wide range of interdisciplinary aspects of the subject. This first volume includes an in-depth examination of acetylcholine, ranging from the localization of synthetic enzymes through electrophysiology, pharmacology, and molecular biology to behavioral importance in learning and memory. This indispensable and comprehensive reference keeps you abreast of new developments in several areas of neuroscience Notes Originally published in 1995 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Trevor W. Stone, Ph.D., D.Sc., is a Professor of Pharmacology at the University of Glasgow in Scotland. Professor Stone graduated in 1969 from the School of Pharmacy at London University and proceeded to the University at Aberdeen in Scotland to take a Ph.D. degree under the supervision of Professor J. Laurence Malcolm. Professor Stone was appointed to a Lectureship in Physiology at Aberdeen, where he remained until 1977 when he was appointed to a senior Lectureship and subsequent Professorship in Neurosciences at St. George's Medical School in London. He is a member of the British Physiological and Pharmacological Societies, the European and International Neuroscience Research Societies, The American Society for Neuroscience, The Royal Society of Medicine in London, and the New York Academy of Sciences. Professor Stone has held research appointments at the National Institute of Mental Health in Washington, D.C. and has been Visiting Professor of Pharmacology at the University of Auckland, New Zealand and at the Gulbenkian Institute of Science, Portugal. Professor Stone has presented invited lectures at international meetings and has published more than 400 research papers and communications. In 1983 Professor Stone was awarded the degree of Doctor of Science by the University of London for his work on the physiology and pharmacology of the nervous system. His current research interests include the pharmacology of synaptic transmission in the nervous system, particularly with respect to amino acids and purines, the interactions between synaptic transmitters, and the role of amino acids in neurological disorders Description based on CIP data; resource not viewed Subject Acetylcholine -- Physiological effect Cholinergic mechanisms.
