Progress in brain research. Volume 88, Neurobiology of the locus coeruleus /
This volume contains the presentations resulting from a three day world symposium held at Post Falls, Idaho, U.S.A., on May 16-19, 1990, entitled 'The Neurobiology of the Locus Coeruleus'. The conference answered a definite need for establishing a focus amid the rapidly accumulating inform...
