Neuronal plasticity is a fundamental process in neuronal development and recovery from brain disorders. The Trophin lab focuses on the role of neurotrophic factors, particularly Brain-Derived ...

The neurobiological and neurophysiological function of this, is to lead to an immediate brain recovery condition (and the commencement of the return of homeostasis) that existed prior to when the ...

The Turrigiano lab studies the plasticity mechanisms that allow our brains to “tune themselves up” and remain both plastic and stable. Over the last two decades we uncovered a family of “homeostatic” ...

They are working to understand the role of transcriptional regulators in homeostatic plasticity ... Kadener These PIs collaborate on the roles of microRNAs in neuronal identity and plasticity in flies ...

A University of Ottawa neuroscientist has led a Canadian research team to reveal important new insights into the activation ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

Our previous research has demonstrated an important role of chloride homeostasis in the mechanism for neuronal survival, apoptosis and rewiring. Our current aim is to investigate in more detail these ...

participate in the maintenance of extracellular ionic and chemical homeostasis, are involved in the response to injury, and affect neuronal development and plasticity. Rabah et al. elegantly show ...
