Neuroepidemiology: From Principles to Practice, 1st Edition, is an academic textbook presenting research methods used to investigate neurological conditions. The volume connects principles of epidemiology with clinical research practices to guide scientific investigations of nervous system diseases.

Core thematic areas include fundamental study design, sources of bias, and analytical methods for evaluating environmental and genetic factors. The work also explores methodological issues in studying major disorders and reviews translational approaches, highlighting the design of clinical trials.

Developed for neurologists, epidemiologists, public health professionals, and students across these disciplines, the text aims to provide the foundational skills required to conduct rigorous clinical and epidemiologic research.
