the latest advances in experimental stroke, with its strong emphasis
on neurogenesis, angiogenesis and neuroprotection after cerebral
ischemic stroke. It also provides current data for pharmacologic

strategies by stem cells. Other chapters deal with the relation
between stroke and neuroimmunology, BBB disruption and electrophysiological
changes. Also covered is magnetic resonance imaging in ischemic
