Diversity and Functions of GABA Receptors: A Tribute to Hanns Möhler, Part B

Diversity and Functions of GABA Receptors: A Tribute to Hanns Möhler, Part B, a new volume of Advances in Pharmacology, presents the diversity and functions of GABA Receptors. The volume looks at research performed in the past 20 years, which has revealed specific physiological and pharmacological functions of individual GABAA receptor subtypes, providing novel opportunities for drug development.
