Project Summary: Professor Brown’s group seeks to unravel one of medicine’s big questions: how anaesthesia works. Several statistical methods and non-invasive techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging magnetoencephalography (MEG) and...
Project Summary: The focus of this project is to study the use of pulsed laser light to stimulate the central auditory system. This novel approach may be a means to improve the efficacy of the current generation of electrically based Auditory Brainstem...
Project Summary: Current robotic neurorehabilitation strategies for motor skills in stroke patients showed large variability in their outcome. Some patients show very promising improvement in their motor skills whereas others show no improvement at all...
Project Summary: When planning a movement towards a visual target, the sensorimotor nervous system is engaged to estimate the spatial location of the target and correspondingly perform the motor output to reach it. Movements can be planned in two major...
Project Summary: The project is a drug discovery project in Alzheimer's disease from assay design to hit confirmation at the LDDN. The aim is to optimize a screen based on CD33 cell surface expression. Indeed it has been discovered that CD33, a protein...
Project Summary: This study will focus on long-term depression (LTD), an important mechanism of synaptic plasticity that modifies synapses in response to neuronal activity and experience. Long-lasting changes in synapse function such LTD are involved in...
