This monograph contains the Proceedings of the Second International Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Cerebral Energy Metabolism, organized and sponsored by the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Art, in Belgrade, September 16-20, 1979. The purpose of the SYmposium was to promote an inter- disciplinary discussion on Circu1atory and Deve1oprnenta1 Aspects of Brain Metabolism. Doctors G. Buznikov (Moscow), I. Klatzo (Bethesda), B. B. Mrsulja (Belgrade) . O. Z. Se1inger (Ann Arbor), and M. Spatz (Bethesda) served as members of the Advisory Board, chaired by Dr. Lj. H. Raki6 (Belgrade) , and he1ped to plan the scientific pro- gram. v CONTENTS 1 Opening Address S.
