Dr. Jonathan Epp: Resilience and Risk: How Sex Differences in Inhibitory Networks Shape Alzheimer’s Disease Trajectories

DMCBH Room 3402 2215 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver

Recent work from our lab has focused on understanding the function of the retrosplenial cortex (RSC) in both health and disease. This region plays a critical role in supporting cognitive functions such as memory integration and spatial navigation and is also one of the earliest sites of dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease. By investigating the cellular […]

Dr. Gerald Obermair: Presynaptic α2δ proteins: calcium channels, synaptic functions, and pathophysiological roles in neurodevelopmental disorders

DMCBH Room 3402 2215 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver

We are delighted to host Dr. Gerald Obermair, a well-known neuroscientist from Karl Landsteiner University, Krems, Austria who will be visiting on Thursday, July 31. Seminar summary: Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) are essential regulators of cellular excitability and synaptic communication. Among their auxiliary subunits, the α2δ proteins play a pivotal role in regulating channel expression, […]

Crafting Visual Explanations of Complex Science: Philosophy and Practice

DMCBH Room 3402 2215 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver

This month, Martin Krzywinski, Canada’s Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre will present "Crafting Visual Explanations of Complex Science: Philosophy and Practice." You’ll learn practical guidelines for crafting visual explanations of your science: form follows function, treat everything as data, seek crispness, fight the shackles of convention, and ask yourself “Is this good for the reader […]

Dr. Erik Bloss: Synapse plasticity in learning and disease states

Rudy North Lecture Theatre, Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health 2215 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver

Synapses are the computational subunits of the brain. They allow cell-type specific forms of information flow, permit neurons to compartmentalize electrical and biochemical signals, and undergo rapid structural plasticity during […]
