AboutNicholas Unger Expertise I am particularly adept at answering any sort of question relating to the action of various neurotransmitters on neurons. Any sort of Neurophysiology/Cell Physiology or Neuropharmacology questions, particularly ion channel based in relation to physiological response. Anything other than that will earn you an educated guess.
Experience I have worked in a Neurophysiology lab for 3 years now on various projects for my dissertation. My expertise is the hypothalamic homeostatic control mechanisms in thermoregulation. Also neural control mechanisms in general as well as Suspended Animation techniques and theory.

Question Greetings,
Would anybody be willing to reco. any latest and greatest textbooks or monographs on neuro-endocrinolgy. I am researching a friends medical condition on faulty adrenal gland function (poss. tumor?). I have an academic background in science, but have been working in a vastly diff field for the last 15 years. Thanks in advance.
Answer Reuben,
Anything by Kandel will probably have what you are looking for Neurophysiology including Neuroendocrinology. Personally if you have access to journals of physiology online that would probably be your best bet. Fortunately, faulty adrenal glands can be modulated with certain hormone treatments.
