BRAD BOLON, DVM, MS, PhD, Diplomate ACVP, Diplomate ABT, Fellow ATS, Fellow IATP, has spent over twenty years as a practitioner and teacher of toxicologic neuropathology. He is the founder of GEMpath, Inc., an experimental pathology consultancy specializing in drug discovery research.
MARK T. BUTT, DVM, Diplomate ACVP, is the founder of Tox Path Specialists, LLC, a company that provides neuropathology and histology support to pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms developing novel therapies that target nervous system diseases. He has over twenty years' experience providing neuropathology support and has evaluated over four hundred studies supporting regulatory submissions for neuroactive compounds.
This book offers pathologists, toxicologists, other medical professionals, and students an introduction to the discipline and techniques of neuropathology including chemical and environmental, biological, medical, and regulatory details important for performing an analysis of toxicant-induced neurodiseases. In addition to a section on fundamentals, the book provides detailed coverage of current practices (bioassays, molecular analysis, and nervous system pathology) and practical aspects (data interpretation, regulatory considerations, and tips for preparing reports).

"This is a comprehensive text that includes a wealth of
information on a very wide range of subjects. It will, of course,
appeal to veterinary pathologists and neurotoxicologists, but it
will also serve as a very good guide for diagnostic
neuropathologists or histopathologists entering the world of
toxicological or pharmacological research." (The
Bulletin of The Royal College of Pathologists, 1 October
2012)
"Overall this is a long awaited, extremely useful book
which should be on the shelf of all pathologists, toxicologists and
students working in the field of neurotoxicology or pathology.
" (British Toxicology Society Newsletter, 1 June
2012)
"This exceptional, high quality book will greatly benefit
its intended audience."
