• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Neuromodulation refers to discrete changes in the chemical and electrical properties of nerve cells. This volume provides an introduction to the general principles, drawing together findings from the fields of biochemistry and neurophysiology.

---

This volume provides an introduction to the general principles of neuromodulation--the key neurobiological process for understanding how the brain works. Emphasizing ion channels and biochemical mechanisms of protein phosphorylation, the book shows how neurons regulate their intracellular calcium concentration by modulating the activity of certain ion channels.
