Leading researchers and clinicians describe their state-of-the-art findings and hypotheses arising from a variety of different approaches to this group of diseases. Their approaches include clinical presentations, epidemiology, transgenic methods, and diagnostic tests via transmission electron microscopy and immunoblotting. The diseases treated range from human to animal spongiform encephalopathies and include Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, mad cow disease, and scrapie.
