we might seek alternative sources of donor tissues. Genetic en-
neering, expansion of precursor cells, generation of immortalized
cell lines, and transplantation between species are all under
active investigation. Although significant difficulties remain for
each of these alternatives, the problems appear soluble and
relevant knowledge is expanding rapidly. As we enter the
twenty-first century, the place of neural tra- plantation in
experimental neuroscience is continuing to evolve. Rather than
being a topic in its own right, neural transplantation increasingly
serves as just another technique in the researcher's
armory--alongside lesions, pharmaceuticals, gene transfer, and a
variety of other techniques--for the experimental manipulation of
brain structure and function. This is particularly true for studies
of degeneration, plasticity, regeneration, and recovery of function
in the nervous system, topics of increasing importance as
experimental neurobiology is required to serve the higher needs of
neurological and mental health in aging societies. Within this
evolving context, Neural Transplantation Methods seeks to serve a
particular need: to provide experimental neu- scientists with a
source book of information to enable them to select and adapt
transplantation techniques to their own expe- mental programs. All
authors have been asked to address prac- cal issues, to enable the
reader to assess what is available, what are the alternatives, what
are the practical issues to be resolved in applying a particular
protocol and getting it to work reliably in their unique
experimental context.
