SUMMARY:Decoding the Brain: How Different Cells Contribute to Disease
DESCRIPTION:Ever wondered what’s actually happening inside the brain when disease strikes\, and how scientists figure it out? \nDecoding the Brain: How Different Cells Contribute to Disease is a free\, after-hours science event that brings you inside the world of modern neuroscience\, without the textbooks or technical jargon. \nTaking place at The Forge in Gastown\, this evening features short\, engaging talks from local brain researchers at the Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health who study the brain’s many cell types – from neurons to support and immune cells – and how their breakdown contributes to neurological disease. You’ll learn how scientists see\, track\, and test brain cells using innovative tools\, and why these discoveries matter for brain health. \nThis event is designed for a general audience (no science background required). Talks are visual\, and interactive\, with plenty of time for questions and discussion. \nThe event is co-organized by the Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health and the Neuroscience Trainee Association\, and will have a relaxed\, after-hours atmosphere. Limited appetizers will be provided\, and drinks will be available for purchase. \n\n\nSpeakers:\nDr. Annie Ciernia\, Assistant Professor\nFrom Clues to Cures: Finding the Cells That Drive Brain Disease \nAndrew Thompson\, PhD candidate\nSeen and Sequenced: How We Study the Brain Cell at the Centre of Multiple Sclerosis \nDr. Mehwish Anwer\, Postdoctoral Fellow\nGoogle Maps for Brain Research \nJacqueline Palik\, Master’s student\nMotor Neurons: The Vulnerable Cells in ALS \n
