Building synapses in the hippocampus
- đ¤ Speaker: Prof Laura Andreae, King's College
- đ Date & Time: Thursday 17 October 2024, 16:00 - 17:00
- đ Venue: Hodgkin Huxley Seminar Room, Physiology Building, Downing Site
Abstract
The Andreae lab is interested in how synaptic connections and neuronal circuits are formed during development, and how these processes may be disrupted in neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism, epilepsy and schizophrenia. They use a variety of approaches, including electrophysiology and advanced imaging techniques, to investigate how neuronal activity regulates early synapse formation and to further our understanding of the mechanisms that lead to alterations in neural circuit development and function in genetic models of neurodevelopmental disorders.
The talk will be followed by a reception with drinks in the tea room, C floor, Physiology Building. Best wishes,
Series This talk is part of the Cambridge Neuroscience Seminars series.
