Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, entitled "Treatment of Neurological Diseases—Current and Emerging Applications", focuses on the rapidly evolving field of neurology, which is currently witnessing groundbreaking advancements in both the understanding and treatment of neurological disorders. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest therapeutic approaches and emerging technologies being applied to combat a range of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and epilepsy, among others.
In recent years, significant progress has been made in understanding the pathophysiology of these disorders, leading to the development of novel treatment strategies. These include precision medicine approaches, gene and cell therapies, advanced neuroimaging techniques, and neuromodulation devices. Furthermore, the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning into diagnostics and treatment monitoring is opening new avenues for personalized care and real-time decision-making in neurological treatment.
This Special Issue aims to collate leading researchers and clinicians to present state-of-the-art research, clinical trials, and reviews on both well-established and experimental therapies. It will cover the entire spectrum from pharmacological treatments to innovative non-invasive techniques, including the use of neuroprotective agents, immunotherapies, and rehabilitation approaches.
Through this collection, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of both the current state and the future potential of neurological disease treatment, providing valuable insights for healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers. This Special Issue also emphasizes the importance of translating research findings into clinical practice to improve patient outcomes in the field of neurology.
