Aperçu du projet

The hippocampus is the brain region which shows the most severe changes in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Magnetic resonance imaging can be used to measure these changes in order to improve diagnosis and evaluate potential treatment options for patients with Alzheimer’s disease. The hippocampus is not a uniform brain region,…

Aperçu du projet

Neonatal strokes occur in approximately 1 in 1500 term births and is the leading cause of hemiplegic cerebral palsy (HCP). The ischemic event leaves most children with life-long motor impairments, and in many cases the effects of rehabilitation are minimal. One potential mechanism for further enhancing the effects of therapy…

Aperçu du projet

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease involving the gradual death of motor neurons. Motor neurons control the body’s movement. As such, their loss leads to muscle weakness, paralysis, and eventually death. Unfortunately, there is no cure or treatments for those living with ALS, in part because the cause…

Aperçu du projet

We live in a world profoundly shaped by social behaviours involving interactions and communications between conspecifics of a given species. All mammals, ranging from primates to rodents, depend on each other to survive and reproduce. For children and young adults, neglect and being deprived of social contact are particularly detrimental.…

Aperçu du projet

The formation of our memories is a behaviour that encapsulates both long-and-short time scales. On the short time-scale, memories are initially formed in the hippocampus through the sequential firing of neurons. These sequences are then replayed by the hippocampus during sleep, where they are thought to be transferred into the…
