Every year, an estimated 1.7 million Americans sustain brain injury. Long-term disabilities impact nearly half of moderate brain injury survivors and nearly 50,000 of these cases result in death. Brain Neurotrauma: Molecular, Neuropsychological, and Rehabilitation Aspects provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account on the latest developments in the area of neurotrauma, including brain injury pathophysiology, biomarker research, experimental models of CNS injury, diagnostic methods, and neurotherapeutic interventions as well as neurorehabilitation strategies in the field of neurotraum research.

The book includes several sections on neurotrauma mechanisms, biomarker discovery, neurocognitive/neurobehavioral deficits, and neurorehabilitation and treatment approaches. It also contains a section devoted to models of mild CNS injury, including blast and sport-related injuries.

Over the last decade, the field of neurotrauma has witnessed significant advances, especially at the molecular, cellular, and behavioral levels. This progress is largely due to the introduction of novel techniques, as well as the development of new animal models of central nervous system (CNS) injury. This book, with its diverse coherent content, gives you insight into the diverse and heterogeneous aspects of CNS pathology and/or rehabilitation needs.

Industry Reviews

"As traumatic brain injury is now well recognized as a world health issue, this text is timely and well deserving in terms of a review or our current understanding of several topics related to traumatic brain injury and recovery of function. [It] is a "must read" for all investigators interested in the field as this text will cover the current advancements in scientific technology, clinical care and, most importantly, the undeniable value of translational research."
-David A. Hovda, PhD, Director, UCLA Brain Injury Research Center"[An] appealing package of knowledge in the mechanisms, epidemiology, psychology, pathology, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of traumatic brain injuries."
-Marten Risling MD, PhD, Professor, Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet
"Broad in its scope and coverage, [the book] is sure to be an outstanding resource for anyone interested in the pathophysiology or treatment of military or civilian head trauma."
-Gregory Elder, MD, Research Professor, Psychiatry, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
