Online Seminar: In search of the neuronal basis of social and affective touch

Friday, October 8, 2021 11:00to12:00

Affective touch is necessary for proper neurodevelopment and sociability. However, it is still unclear how the neurons innervating the skin detect affective and social behaviours....

Online Seminar: Functional Immune memory to SARS-CoV2

Friday, October 1, 2021 11:00to12:00

We have examined the type of immune memory that forms in individuals that experience mild COVID-19. Longitudinal analyses of SARS-CoV2 memory B and T cells were performed, specifically focused on...

Online Seminar - Representations of complex sound features in auditory cortex

Friday, November 26, 2021 11:00to12:00

The early auditory system decomposes incoming sounds into a collection of sine waves with different frequencies. But we would not describe our everyday experience of hearing sound as one of ...

Online Seminar: Cortical control of innate behaviors

Friday, September 24, 2021 11:00to12:00

While innate, the display of many behaviors is influenced by cortical activities./physiologyCategory: Dept. of Physiology

Online Seminar: Making your way - how cells steer themselves to solve mazes or spread cancer

Friday, September 17, 2021 11:00to12:00

Seminar - Fructose and the Hungry Brain

Friday, February 14, 2020 11:00to12:00

Fructose is a simple sugar found in fruit and honey, but it is also used as sweeteners via added sugars, syrups, or high fructose corn syrup in processed foods or beverages.3655 promenade Sir...

Seminar - The role of the voltage gated sodium channel Nav1.7 in human pain and pleasure

Friday, January 24, 2020 11:00to12:00

There has been significant progress over the last decade in understanding the molecular basis by which sensory neurons transduce and subsequently transmit noxious (ie. tissue damaging) stimuli...

Seminar - Astroglial modulation of neuronal firing pattern in cortical and rhythmogenic brainstem sensorimotor circuits

Friday, January 17, 2020 11:00to12:00

Several functions, motor or sensory, rely on the ability of neurons to modify their discharge pattern to faithfully encode the characteristics of a sensory stimulus or to reflect a rhythmic motor...
