A special lecture by Dr. Bin T. Teh, Director of the Singhealth Duke-NUS Institute of Biodiversity Medicine (BD-MED), on ‘Translating Plant Biodiversity Studies to Impact Health and Medicine’ will take place on Wed, Aug 19th at 3-4pm in DMCBH 3402 A/B, with refreshments and a social hour after. Dr. Teh will explore how biodiversity, from […]
This talk will introduce emerging roles for microglia and discrete innate immune signaling pathways in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease, tauopathies, and brain injury.
A large body of recent work has focused on the problem of inferring neural population dynamics from recordings of neural activity. However, these models typically ignore the fact that the […]
Dr. Bolton will discuss how early-life adversity impacts brain development in the context of psychiatric disorders, with a focus on the role of microglia in the synaptic rewiring of stress-sensitive […]
Bioelectronic implants for brain stimulation provide critical tools for treating brain diseases as well as investigating fundamental biology but require invasive surgery. In this talk I will discuss a new […]
The human brain comprises billions of neurons that communicate primarily through chemical synapses by releasing diverse neuromodulators, which regulate perception, movement, learning, and memory. Dissecting the neural mechanisms in both […]
The head-direction (HD) circuit, an upstream provider of orientation signals for navigation, maintains coherent internal orientation memory that stays stable within each environment for weeks. During non-REM sleep, when hippocampal […]
