                 Synapses are fundamental units of neuronal connectivity in the brain. Our laboratory investigates synapse for principles of learning and memory, for processes underlying animal behaviours, and for pathological mechanisms of various neurological and psychiatric disorders including autism, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer’s disease.
In this seminar, I will present recent findings on three major aspects of research in our laboratory the role of BDNF/TrkB signalling in animal behavior, 2) the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying autism, and 3) cutting-edge molecular and genetic tools for neuroscience research

             ▶Inquiry: Prof. Park, Sang Ki (279-2349)
