Essential Guide to Neurodegenerative Disorders

Dr. Wael Mohamed is Professor of Basic Medical Science at the International Islamic University Malaysia. He obtained his MD and MSc in Clinical Pharmacology from Meoufia Medical School, Egypt, and his PhD in Neuroscience from The Pennsylvania State University. After finishing his neurosurgery training, he began his career as a clinical pharmacologist with psychopharmacology as a subspecialty. Dr. Mohamed specializes in translational brain research; his current focal area is the investigation and development of novel treatments for Parkinson’s Disease and related neurodegenerative disorders. He is a member of several neuroscience societies, including the American Psychological Association, The Society for Neuroscience, National Academy of Neuropsychology, and the International Congress of Neuropsychopharmacology. He has published several books with Elsevier, including Translational Models of Parkinson’s Disease and Related Movement Disorders, Essential Guide to Neurodegenerative Disorders, and Telehealth in Movement Disorders.
