Labroots is excited to present the 12th Annual Event in the Neuroscience Virtual Event Series , to be broadcasted live on March 6th, 2024. This distinguished, online-only, event is free to a...
Robots are useful tools for studying the nervous system and its control of body mechanics because they can be used to perform experiments that would be difficult to perform with an animal. F...
This talk will present the methodology of using the guided ultrasonic waves generated by the rodent to track its physiology, behavior, and psychological state. When behaving in an environmen...
We are developing the three-banded panther worm Hofstenia miamia as a new model system for neuroscience. Hofstenia is a rare, lab-tractable member of a lineage of early-branching marine inve...
The study of psychopathology is changing with the advent and pervasive use of smartphones, wearables, and connected devices together with significant advances in brain imaging. These new ave...
A central goal for neuroscience is to understand how our brains process information in real life, such as faces during natural social interactions. While we have gained important knowledge u...
The ability to record every spike from every neuron in a behaving animal is one of the holy grails of neuroscience. Here, Alison Hanson discusses a collaborative effort aimed at coming one s...
Behaving animals continually reconcile the internal states of their neural circuits brain-wide with incoming sensory and environmental evidence to evaluate when and how to act. The brains of...
To make movement and foraging decisions in a naturalistic environment, multiple neural populations must work synergistically to produce successful actions. These decisions span multiple scal...
Virginia will discuss work on single-trial analysis of EEG signals during episodic memory tasks. They develop single-trial classifiers to predict whether people will remember pictures from E...
Individuals with substance use disorders often show impaired sensitivity to reward value. However, it is not clear whether such impairment impacts reward-related decision making and whether...
Studying motor behaviors can reveal fundamental principles of the brain and mind. This presentation focuses on our work towards developing the hardware and computational tools that will allo...
A core goal of neuroscience is to understand how the brain adaptively orchestrates movements to execute complex behaviors. Quantifying behavioral dynamics, however, has historically been pro...
Many nonhuman primate species show sex differences in behavior, which suggests that there may also be sex differences in brain organization. In order to better understand the evolution of se...
The ultimate goal of neuroscience is to understand and explain real-world behavior in terms of brain activity, and to use these insights to develop therapeutic approaches for neural disorder...
Social interactions are essential for the survival of social animals. Across species the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been identified as a hub of social cognition. In mouse models we...
Infant motor development is measured clinically using short, subjective, observational scales. While these scales are useful, they have limitations. They provide us with a “snapshot&rd...
Drug discovery programs require a robust panel of models and assays to identify and validate drug targets, support compound optimisation, and run mechanistic studies. Fully human in vitro mo...
DBS for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) achieves clinical benefit in 66% of treatment-resistant patients. However, there is still a lack of a fundamental understanding of the neurophysio...
Brain organoids are self-assembled three-dimensional cellular aggregates with cell types and tissue architectures that resemble the embryonic human brain. As they recapitulate many key featu...
Recent advances in gene editing has allowed the generation of advanced rodent research models, mimicking some aspects of human conditions. For neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer&r...
Precision medicine in solid tumors is transforming the testing and treatment of cancer. You can be part of this exciting field by joining our one-day virtual event. Some of the highlights of...
In recent years, small volume biopsies have been increasingly utilized for diagnosis of tumors in both primary and recurrent settings. Concomitantly, the numbers of ancillary studies for cha...
Labroots and the Drug Discovery planning committee are pleased to announce its 7th Annual Event in the Drug Discovery & Development Virtual Event Series . Labroots will host this online-...
mRNA‑based products are rapidly growing in the biotherapeutics space. Important considerations need to be made to develop a process for mRNA synthesis that consistently generates high‑yield...
Interoceptive signals dynamically interact with the environment to shape appropriate defensive behaviors. Neurons in the hypothalamus regulate internal states, such as thirst and circadian r...
This presentation explores the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of β-lactam antibiotic dosing, particularly in ICU patients. To optimize PK/PD targets, two strategies are...
Multiplex immunofluorescence is a powerful tool for phenotyping cells from a single tissue slide, while preserving spatial context. The MultiOmyxTM platform, offered as an end to end service...
Central Nervous System (CNS) therapies have significantly progressed in the last decade, propelled by emerging treatment modalities including gene therapies. Neurological indications remain...
Current cancer research is hindered by the limitations of existing experimental systems, which fall short in demonstrating concordance with human studies. In this way, we aim to develop mode...
NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) is a global epidemic that affects 25% of the world’s population, with its epicentre in the West. Twenty percent of NAFLD patients go on to dev...
Labroots is excited to present the 12th Annual Event in the Neuroscience Virtual Event Series , to be broadcasted live on March 6th, 2024. This distinguished, online-only, event is free to a...
