Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The diagnosis of neurological diseases is one of the most difficult challenges for medical professionals due to the complexity of the nervous system. Currently, more than 600 diseases have been identified including neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, cerebrovascular diseases, and others such as multiple sclerosis, migraine, neuroinfections, and neuromuscular diseases. According to a World Health Organisation report, nervous system diseases affect up to one billion people worldwide. Neurological diseases include those caused by single gene abnormalities, such as Huntington’s disease, spinocerebellar degeneration, and muscular dystrophy, and multifactorial diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
In this Special Issue of “Neurophysiology and Genetics of Neurological Diseases”, we invite investigators to contribute original research, review articles, or case reports focusing on the role of neurophysiology and genetics in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases.
Dr. Vasileios Papaliagkas
Guest Editor
