Recent Progress in Alzheimar's and Parkinson's Diseases brings together the proceedings of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases: New Perspectives, the Sixth International Conference on Alzheimer's Disease and Parkinson's Disease, held recently in Seville, Spain, and discusses the latest developments in the basic science and therapy of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases by leading specialists on the topic.
Areas discussed include: mechanisms of degeneration of Parkinson's Disease; the interrelationships between gait and cognitive function; advances in gene transfer and pharmacological regulation of protein aggregation in the treatment of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases; Alzheimer pathology and ER stress; and stem cell strategies for Alzheimer's Disease.
