ANIMAL AND TRANSLATIONAL MODELS FOR CNS DRUG DISCOVERY, 1-3
3: Animal and Translational Models for CNS Drug Discovery: Reward Deficit Disorders, 3
Edited By Robert McArthur, Associate Professor of Research, Consultant Behavioral Pharmacologist, McArthur & Associates GmbH, Basel, Switzerland Franco Borsini, Head, Central & Peripheral Nervous System and General Pharmacology Area - R&D Department, sigma-tau SpA, Pomezia (Rome), Italy
Description The use of appropriate models can minimize the number of drug candidates that later fail in human trials by accurately predicting the
efficacy and the toxicity of each compound. This can be improved with more informed selection of the appropriate models. This book provides
disorder-specific guidelines for understanding the selection and use of non-human models for trials in the drug discovery and development
process. Reward Deficit Disorders is written for researchers in both academia and the pharmaceutical industry who use animal
models in research and development of drugs for reward deficit disorders such as anti-obesity drugs, medication for heroin and cocaine
addiction and more.
This is the third volume in the three volume-set, Animal and Translational Models for CNS Drug Discovery 978-0-12-373861-5,
and is also available for purchase individually.
