Klappentext This volume explores the link between basic science and clinical insights in the field of schizophrenia research. Zusammenfassung This book was originally published in 2004 and concerns developmental neurobiology. In the decade preceding publication! developmental neurobiology made important strides towards elucidating the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders. Nowhere has this link between basic science and clinical insights become clearer than in the field of schizophrenia research. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Genes and brain development Timothy A.
