Animal models of neurodegenerative disease are excellent tools for studying pathogenesis
and therapies including cellular transplantation. In this chapter, we describe different models
of Huntington's disease and Parkinson's disease, stereotactic surgery (used in creation of
lesion models and transplantation) and finally transplantation studies in these models.
