The Neuroscience division pursues a broad range of neurobiological research, spanning from the molecular to the behavioural levels.
Research areas include:
- neuronal development
- molecular and cellular neuroscience
- neurophysiology
- synaptic plasticity, learning and memory, and
- neurodegeneration and the ageing nervous system.
We strive to integrate our research to provide a better understanding of the function of the healthy nervous system and the mechanisms leading to neurological disease states. A primary objective is to translate our knowledge into pharmacological and cell based therapies and improved clinical practice.
