* Not only do glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid, and cholesterol-derived lipid mediators facilitate the transfer of messages from one cell to another, they also facilitate communication among subcellular organelles. Hot Topics in Neural Membrane Lipidology providesreaders with a cutting-edge, comprehensive review of these lipid mediators, their roles and association with neurological disorders, and the future direction of research on the topic. This monograph provides readers with critical data and is particularly accessible to neuroscience graduate students, teachers, and researchers. It can be used as a supplemental text for a range of neuroscience courses. Clinicians and pharmacologists will find this book useful for understanding molecular aspects of lipid mediators in acute neural trauma like stroke, spinal cord trauma, head injury, and neurodegenerative diseasessuch as Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, and Huntington disease. *

3rd Mexican Meeting on Mathematical and Experimental Physics Mexico City, Mexico, 10-14 September 2007
Contents
* The Third Mexican Meeting on Mathematical and Experimental Physics brought together scientists from many different fields.
* The Meeting was divided into three Symposia: (i) Physical Chemistry, (ii) Biological Physics, (iii) Gravitation and Cosmology. These proceedings presents the papers of the Biological Physics Symposium. The main objective of the symposium was to open new lines of research for young scientists and promising graduate students interested on Biophysics. Topics discussed included biological physics, Ions and membranes, DNA, proteins and macro systems. *
