SUMMARY:Dr. Janine Kwapis: Time to learn: Diurnal regulation of memory by the clock gene Per1
DESCRIPTION:Zoom option if unable to attend in person:\nZoom link here (click on “Join a meeting”)\nMeeting ID: 91512 289258\nPasscode: 289258\n\nMany biological processes\, including memory formation\, are strongly influenced by the circadian system\, which synchronizes animals’ internal states with the external time of day. Long-term memory performance changes across the day/night cycle in both humans and rodents\, yet the mechanisms that support this process are largely unknown. In this talk\, I will present my lab’s research suggesting that a circadian clock gene\, Period1 (Per1) may serve as a molecular interface between the circadian clock and memory formation. Per1 oscillates in tandem with memory in memory-relevant brain regions\, like the hippocampus\, with both memory and Per1 levels peaking during the day and showing a trough at night. Interestingly\, old animals have repressed hippocampal Per1 levels even during the day\, suggesting that they may show impairments in memory due to this persistent “nighttime state” that limits memory across the diurnal cycle. Together\, our data suggest that Per1 may function locally in memory-relevant brain regions to exert diurnal control over memory.

SUMMARY:Dr. Nick Steinmetz: Brain-wide coordinated dynamics and Neuropixels Ultra
DESCRIPTION:Zoom option if unable to attend in person:\nZoom link here (click on “Join a meeting”)\nMeeting ID: 91512 289258\nPasscode: 289258\n\nIn this talk\, I will describe two recent projects in my lab. In the first\, we discovered that brain-wide spatiotemporal dynamics (i.e. traveling waves) are coordinated on a moment-to-moment basis between neocortex and striatum\, thalamus\, and midbrain. We used widefield calcium imaging and Neuropixels 2.0 recordings in combination to reveal the structure of these waves in the mouse brain\, including a link to the underlying axonal architecture that supports them. Second\, I will talk about our work developing a new version of the Neuropixels probe\, called ‘Neuropixels Ultra’\, which has much smaller and denser recording sites than previous versions. This configuration yields improved characteristics for some applications and reveals new observations about the biophysical phenomena observable with extracellular electrophysiology.

SUMMARY:Dr. Alicia Izquierdo: Translational models of frontocortical circuits in learning and decision making
DESCRIPTION:Zoom option if unable to attend in person:\nZoom link here (click on “Join a meeting”)\nMeeting ID: 91512 289258\nPasscode: 289258\n\nOrbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and Anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) have been assigned various overlapping roles ranging from learning and responding to reward\, signaling value and uncertainty\, and supporting economic decisions\, to name a few. Both of these regions share reciprocal anatomical connections with basolateral amygdala\, contributing to functional similarities among these circuits. Using a combination of novel behavioral paradigms\, DREADDs\, and 1P calcium imaging in freely-moving rats\, our lab has sought better resolution of diverse frontocortical processes. In this talk I will present data comparing subregional frontal cortex contributions\, together with basolateral amygdala\, in reward learning and value-based decisions. With few exceptions\, our results suggest mostly overlapping\, less specialized\, roles for ACC and OFC that point to complementary roles in keeping track of expected uncertainty\, or the range of typically-experienced outcomes. Collectively these findings may have implications for how we view frontocortical contributions across rodent and primate species.
