From Anatomy to Function of the Central Nervous System: Clinical and Neurosurgical Applications features neuroradiologic images that represent today, one of the most effective resources able to detect the anatomy of the nerve structures. Simultaneously featuring neuroimages, readers can study the functional aspects of the entire central nervous system with detailed captions that describe in detail how to use and interpret them. This book includes images of the brain dissected with the Klingler’s method and white matter fiber dissection. By integrating the anatomo-functional description with the synaptic organization of the CNS, this reference is useful for anyone who wants to understand how the activity of a nerve structure arises, describing its microstructure, neurotransmitter phenotype, and neural activity. It also features descriptions of pathologic conditions which result from neuroanatomical and/or neurofunctional alterations and includes neurosurgical aspects.

Dr Ascenzi received his Bachelor’s Degree in Techniques of Biomedical Laboratory and his Master’s Degree in Neurobiology (Medical Biotechnology) at School of Medicine and Surgery, University of Rome “Tor Vergata”. Over the years he took part in several research project about neuromuscular diseases, such as Duchenne’s Muscular Dystrophy, at the Institute of Histology and Embryology of University of Rome “La Sapienza” and at the School of Sciences (MM.PH.NN) of “Tor Vergata” University. Since 2015 to middle 2016 he worked, at National Research Council “CNR”, to a project on the mechanism of maturation and secretion of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) in a murine model of diabetic and Alzheimer-like encephalopathy. In 2017 he won the European PhD “Marie Curie” fellowship and he worked at the Centro de Biologia Molecular “Severo Ochoa” of Madrid in collaboration with University of Lund, Polytechnic University of Milan, Barcelona, Oslo, Munich and others. His fields of research interest mainly focus on the modulation of brain development through neurotransmitters and peptides in the field of neurodevelopmental diseases (ASD, ADHD). Recently he also started to participate at neurosurgical and radiological works. Currently he is majoring in Medicine, he is 33 years old and this is his first monography.
