We are pleased to announce the upcoming ISMB Seminar Series for the Autumn/Term 1 2024-25, 鈥�Understanding neuronal processes at multiple scales - key questions and new approaches鈥�.听
Our first speaker is Andrea Serio from the Francis Crick Institute with their talk,听鈥淓ngineering鈥� Neuroscience: combining bioengineering, stem cells technologies and in vitro modelling to better understand neurodegeneration, hosted by Andres Ramos.
Neurons are highly-differentiated cells that employ great structural and functional diversity within networks that underlie brain function. However, understanding how these cells function at the听molecular level is no small challenge. The autumn seminar series in 2024 will examine how neurons are able to perform complex functions using simple molecular building blocks. The seminar series will include talks on the molecular structure of neurons at different scales assisted by the latest high-resolution imaging approaches. Speakers will also examine the molecular basis of neuronal functions including cytoskeletal trafficking, localised protein synthesis, and circuit formation. In addition, the series will explore how molecular insights may be exploited in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

The series is co-ordinated by Matthew Gold and听Andres听Ramos.
