Register for The Allure of Computational Neurosceince by selecting the following link. Many of the brain’s most intriguing mechanisms are difficult, if not impossible, to measure directly. For this reason, neuroscientists create artificial models of the brain, inspired by real biology, and study in tandem with carefully directed measurements. Computational neuroscience merges biology’s sea
View eventRegister for Part 1 Now! In this webinar, we will continue to discuss the advantages and limitations of various graphics editing software. We will walk through, step-by-step, how to draw clear and captivating scientific illustrations using Adobe Illustrator and how to avoid common mistakes. If you have never used Illustrator and want to know what it is, or i
Register for My Journey to Find the Neural Basis of Space, Time, and Memory by selecting the attached link. This webinar will reflect upon the speaker’s progression — from a curious child interested in animal behavior, to a neuroscientist evaluating neural processes underlying cognitive functions — and discuss how current technology enables the study of thousands of brain cells simultaneou
Register for Networking, Mentoring, and Diversity in Neuroscience by selecting the attached link: From the point of view of a developmental neurobiologist and university vice president promoting communications and diversity, this webinar will discuss the importance of networking, mentorship, and the need for diverse role models to inspire the next generation of neuroscientists worldwide. C
Register for Stress-Induced Acetylcholine Signaling in Affective Behaviors: Too Much of a Good Thing? by selecting the attached link. Acetylcholine (ACh) transmission is critical for cognition and attention, but is also released in response to stress. Importantly, ACh levels are dysregulated in the brains of human depressed subjects. Using the example of ACh signaling in stress-relevant be
Register now for Seeing Into the Synapse: Exploring a Nanoscale World by selecting the attached link. Communication in all neural circuits is controlled by a remarkably similar, highly specialized site of cell-cell contact known as a synapse. The human brain contains trillions of these structures. Many open questions remain regarding how synapses are formed and lost, their nanoscale organ
Register for Where and When Neuromodulatory Signaling Meets Behavior by following the attached link. Neuromodulators influence communication across brain areas by shaping the activity of neurons as well as the strength and plasticity of their synapses, ultimately promoting behavioral switching. This webinar will review a research journey from ion channel neuromodulation via receptors loca
Register for “You Can’t Respect the Brain and Be a Neurosurgeon” and Other Tall Tales by selecting the attached link. Neurosurgeons have unique access to the human brain. In just the last 10 years, neurosurgical techniques have advanced rapidly such that opportunities to study neural activity and neuromodulation in acute and chronic settings have multiplied. This session will discuss how a
Register for Exploration of Tissue Ecosystem: Pandora’s Box as Revealed by Gene Expression by selecting the attached link. Spatial transcriptomics was the first method to provide unbiased whole transcriptome analysis with spatial information from tissue. Since its publication in 2016, the method has been used in multiple biological systems and represents the most widely used spatial trans
