SUMMARY:Dr. Douglas Wylie: Cerebellar Control of Flight in Birds: Easy as 1\, 2\, 3
DESCRIPTION:Zoom option if unable to attend in person:\nZoom link here (click on “Join a meeting”)\nMeeting ID: 91512 289258\nPasscode: 289258\n\nThe cerebellum contains the majority of neurons in the brain and has been implicated with many aspects of motor control. In birds this includes the control of flight. In this talk\, by synthesizing behavioral\, neurophysiological\, neuroanatomical and paleontological data I will emphasize three points: (i) the expansion of the cerebellum in birds is associated with the evolution of powered flight; (ii) retinal-recipient nuclei that analyze optic flow are critical for controlling flight; and (iii) three different visuomotor areas of the cerebellum are involved in controlling different aspects of flight.

SUMMARY:Dr. Rosemary Bagot:  At the intersection of threat and reward in nucleus accumbens glutamatergic afferents.
DESCRIPTION:Zoom option if unable to attend in person:\nZoom link here (click on “Join a meeting”)\nMeeting ID: 91512 289258\nPasscode: 289258\n\nThe nucleus accumbens integrates diverse inputs\, balancing threat and reward to orchestrate motivated behaviour. Glutamatergic projections from the ventral hippocampus and medial prefrontal cortex converge in the accumbens medial shell and are implicated in reward processing as well as adaptation to chronic stress. How these pathways integrate aversive or appetitive events to modulate behaviour is not fully understood and largely unstudied in females\, despite known sex-differences in stress-related psychopathologies. I will present new data using pathway-specific in vivo fibre-photometry and chemogenetic silencing to uncover how these projections encode aversive experiences to shape behavioural responding to threat and integrate information about the outcome of actions to shape learning about reward.

SUMMARY:Dr. Irene Vavasour: Diving into neuroimaging research with FINS
DESCRIPTION:Zoom option if unable to attend in person:\nZoom link here (click on “Join a meeting”)\nMeeting ID: 91512 289258\nPasscode: 289258\n\nThe Fipke Integrated Neuroimaging Suite (FINS) hosts state-of-the-art neuroimaging equipment including a 3T Philips MRI scanner and a 3T GE PET/MR scanner. Our translational research includes developing better imaging tools for disorders such as multiple sclerosis\, Parkinson’s\, Alzheimer’s\, stroke\, traumatic brain injury and mental health\, as well as healthy aging. This presentation will discuss many of our novel imaging techniques\, including myelin water imaging\, how and why they are used and what up and coming developments are available.
