The 2022 InsideScientific Research Technology & Innovation Summits focus on specific research and therapeutic areas, reviewing how novel technologies and innovative services are advancing discovery in each particular field.

In this Mandarin-language webinar, Dr. Freddy Yan discusses head-fixed and head-mounted approaches to recording neuronal activity in awake, behaving mice.

Dr. Agenor Limon presents research integrating functional metrics with large anatomical, transcriptomic, and proteomic datasets to evaluate the relationship between synaptic E/I ratio and behavioral abnormalities across postmortem intervals and brain banks.

Dr. Jeff Jamison presented on the connection between operant conditioning and studying vision in small animals, and how visual acuity tasks can form the basis for various research models, including toxicology and pharmacological testing.

Dr. Yasaman Soudagar and Dr. Roshni Christo demonstrate how to use calcium imaging in up to 4 implanted areas of the brain of freely behaving mice to map out neuronal circuits and identify changes that take place under different disease conditions and behavior mechanisms.

Dr. Paul Marvar and Benjamin Turley present research pairing behavioral and cardiovascular responses to cued fear learning and demonstrate how fear-based disorders (such as PTSD) can contribute to cardiovascular disease risk.

Dr. Anna Cavaccini and Dr. James Dooley share insights into the development of rodent sensorimotor neuronal circuits during early postnatal life.

Join Rohan Jagirdar, PhD as he discusses his research on EEG activity in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease to determine the effects of improved sleep on disease progression.

Dr. Fiona Harrison discusses how dietary deficiency and exposure to toxins can impact glutamate uptake and clearance, and the subsequent changes in neural signaling can be detected through altered EEG activity and performance on learning and memory tasks.

Join Dr. Barry Setlow as he discusses the behavioral and biological mechanisms of cost-benefit decision making in rodent models, with a focus on how substance use can affect variability and long-term consequences in decision making.

In this webinar, Andrea Benucci, PhD discusses a setup developed in his laboratory for high-throughput behavioral training of mice based on voluntary head fixation.

Dr. Gilles Martin discusses the cellular basis and reward pathways behind binge drinking behavior and alcohol abuse in rodent models.
