第89回 アイセムスセミナー / CeMI セミナーシリーズ 27: Karel Svoboda, PhD
CeMI:Center for Meso-Bio Single-Molecule Imaging
Animals sense the world through movements and sensation, which in turn modify their movement. The goal of the Svoboda lab is to understand how movement and sensation are combined in the mammalian brain to guide behavior. They use 2-photon calcium imaging to monitor the flow of information in neuronal circuits in behaving mice. In combination with genetically encoded calcium sensors, calcium imaging can measure neural activity in axons, dendrites, and somata of multiple individual neurons. Imaging thus defines places in the brain where sensorimotor integration occurs and provides hints of the underlying mechanisms. In this talk, Dr. Svoboda will explain recent results obtained in his lab in a broader frame, so that scientists with different backgrounds can understand and enjoy his talk and participate in the discussion.
After the seminar, an informal meet-the-speaker reception will take place at the Lounge, next to the seminar room. Please join us for more discussion with Dr. Svoboda.
