Movement Disorder Genetics
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-35855-0 (ISBN)
This book covers recent developments and possible pitfalls in the diagnosis of genetic movement disorders and related conditions. It is divided into three sections: technical and scientific aspects; clinical aspects with guidance towards work-up; and ethical and legal aspects of genetic testing in a clinical and research setting.
The first section includes chapters on genetic analysis and counselling with critical discussion of potential problems when interpreting the results. Clinical chapters summarize genetic forms of movement disorders including parkinsonism, tics and dystonia with algorithms for hands-on daily practice. Related conditions such as RLS, ataxias and dementias are also covered. Finally, chapters on ethical and legal aspects of genetic testing are included.
Movement Disorder Genetics is aimed at clinicians and scientists working in the field of movement disorders and related conditions.
Susanne A. Schneider is a consultant neurologist and clinician scientist at the Department of Neurology in Kiel, Germany. She completed her neurology specialty training at the Queen Square Institute of Neurology in London, England and the University of Lübeck, Germany. She has always had a great interest in movement disorders with focus on movement disorder genetics and electrophysiology. She holds a Ph.D. degree in neurosciences from University College London. She has received many awards, among others the European Dystonia Society David Marsden Award and the AAN Jon Stolk Award in Movement Disorders for Young Investigators. She has published more than 120 papers and is one of the four co-authors of Marsden's Book of Movement Disorders.

José Bras is a molecular geneticist whose research interests are primarily directed at how genetic variability acts on neurodegenerative diseases. He performed his doctoral studies at the NIH under the supervision of Dr. Andrew Singleton and later moved to London, UK to pursue post-doctoral work at the Institute of Neurology, University College of London.
