Learn how the analysis of cancers in pet dogs and cats can help identify promising new anticancer drugs for humans. Dr. Timothy Fan, a veterinary oncologist, and cancer researcher, will walk us through the work being done at the Comparative Oncology Research Laboratory on a subject that has far-reaching implications for the human and animal worlds.

Bats modify directional aim & timing of sonar calls as they inspect targets and obstacles, & importantly, these inspection behaviors provide a direct readout of their attention to objects. Multichannel recordings from the midbrain superior colliculus and hippocampus of the free-flying bat reveal that neural coding of space is dynamic and modulated by sonar-guided attention

The spatial organization of cells and molecules is closely tied to their functional network. My group develops a multiscale, multimodal imaging platform to study how individual molecules and cells work together to perform systems-level functions. Our platform can be used to study the spatial architecture of brains at high resolution.

In this seminar I will discuss our recent work aimed at understaning how behaviorally meaningful stimuli are encoded within ensembles of hippocampal neurons, and how these representations are modified by learning. Specifically, I will present work on how the mouse dentate gyrus discriminates olfactory information through learning, and how the the ventral hippocampus is org

Animals live in a multisensory world and use different sensory channels to communicate during crucial behavioral contexts. I will discuss how an African cichlid fish uses visual, acoustic, chemosensory, and mechanosensory communication during social interactions, and how these senses may be modulated by an individual's reproductive and hormonal state.

The seminar will introduce a common mechanism underlying these diseases: the redistribution of microtubule associated protein tau (MAPT) from the axon into the somatodendritic compartments of neurons and further into dendritic spines, causing loss of AMPA receptors in spines.
