This new book examines the latest developments in the field of neuroscience related to these changes.
The recent and ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has changed societies and research around the world. The book includes six chapters in two sections: "COVID-19 Effects: Neurology, Neuroimmunology, Neurogenesis" and "Molecular and Cellular Neurochemistry." The first section includes chapters that address such topics as COVID's effect on adult neurogenesis, neurological manifestations of COVID-19, and COVID-19 and seizures. Chapters in the second section discuss peripheral biomarkers in multiple sclerosis, amino acids as neurotransmitters, advancements in RNA sequencing technologies, and more.
