Speaking is a unique and defining human behavior. Over the past decade, we have focused on deciphering the basic neural code that underlies our ability to speak fluently. During speech […]
This month, Komal Bharti from the Vila-Rodriguez lab in the Department of Psychiatry will present on "Heart rate variability (HRV) correlates of functional MRI in humans." Zoom link if unable […]
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is the most common type of traumatic brain injury globally. Although its consequences may be short term, mTBI often leads to long-term neuropsychiatric and neurological […]
In 1973 John Heuser and Tom Reese demonstrated that neurotransmitter was released from neurons via the fusion of neurotransmitter-filled vesicles with the cell membrane. But at the same time, these […]
Dopamine is a neuromodulator that codes information on various time scales. I will discuss recent progress on the identification of fast release mechanisms for dopamine in the mouse striatum. I will present data […]
This month, Dr. John-Jose Nunez (Department of Psychiatry) will present on "Machine Learning Analyses for Antidepressant Response Prediction." Zoom link if unable to attend in person: https://ubc.zoom.us/j/5747966049?pwd=N1ppY2tUS3o4bk9vTkFSTzBna3k0Zz09 Meeting ID: 574 […]
Mammals use a sophisticated, multi-regional memory system to guide behavior. A major goal of neuroscience is to understand the mechanisms—ranging from molecular to cellular to systems—that make this possible. Spruston […]
The Heller Lab research program is focused on discovering molecular mechanisms by which epigenetic reprogramming contributes to neuropsychiatric disease. To this end, Dr. Heller pioneered the use of targeted epigenetic […]
Brain function is largely shaped by experience in early life, creating windows of both great opportunity and vulnerability. Our work has focused on the biological basis for such critical periods, […]
We are looking forward to hosting this Research Retreat at UBC Okanagan! This event is open to all DMCBH members, postdoctoral fellows, research associates, PhD and MSc students affiliated with […]
This month, Chantelle Cocquyt from the Palombo Lab in the Department of Psychology will present on "How emotional context influences memory for neutral scene details in a non-clinical sample of […]
