Imaging in CNS Drug Discovery and Development Implications for Disease & Therapy /

Imaging is a key area of translational research that provides a unique bridge from the laboratory to the clinic as the same techniques and technologies can applied across the various phases of drug development. Neuroimaging is now central to research and drug development in the neurosciences since i...
