Translational Models of Parkinson’s Disease and Related Movement Disorders focuses on cutting-edge techniques for creating and validating current Parkinson’s Disease translational experimental models. Various characteristics of these models are examined, including the prion-like properties of -synuclein, mitochondrial functions connected to the PINK1-Parkin pathway/CHCHD2, the endolysosome pathway connected to LRRK2, VPS35, and ATP13A2 using cultured cells (including patient iPS cells). This book also highlights the future possibilities of introducing new models for Parkinson’s Disease and related movements disorders, underscoring current advancements, pre-clinical and clinical developments, and future scope related to numerous models.

Dr. Wael Mohamed Yousef Mohamed is Professor of Basic Medical Science at the International Islamic University Malaysia, with over 20 years of experience in translational brain research and longevity science. He earned his MD and MSc in Clinical Pharmacology from Meoufia Medical School, Egypt, and his PhD in Neuroscience from The Pennsylvania State University. His research focuses on aging-related neurodegeneration, particularly Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, aiming to understand the biological mechanisms of aging and develop therapies to extend healthspan. Dr. Mohamed investigates how aging influences neurodegenerative processes and seeks targeted interventions to promote healthy longevity. He is a member of leading neuroscience societies, including the Society for Neuroscience. His prior editorial work with Elsevier includes titles on neurodegenerative and movement disorders, reflecting his expertise in aging, neurodegeneration, and longevity.
