The Handbook of Dopamine Systems, explores the function of dopamine neurons that spans from molecular, cellular, synaptic and circuits through to behavior and finally, dysfunction in disease. This volume will map out the anatomical organization and molecular diversity of dopamine now increasingly understood through large scale analyses. This volume compiles the latest research from many prominent figures still involved in dopamine research. Content included will reflect many new developments such as genetic analyses and manipulations, optogenetics, fluorescent probes and real-time optical imaging, multichannel recordings, behavioral analyses, and human neuron modelling. Offers up-to-date review of dopamine biology across fieldsExplains the function of dopamine neurons and circuits from behavior and dysfunctionIncludes historical and future perspectives in the field of dopamine research INDICE: 1.
