The Killam Seminar Series presents听Mechanisms and Roles of Fast Dopamine Signaling.

Registration available .

厂辫别补办别谤:听Pascal S. Kaeser, MD

Professor, Department of Neurobiology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA

础产蝉迟谤补肠迟:听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听present data on triggering mechanisms of dopamine release and evaluate its roles in striatal regulation. In the long-term, our work will allow for a better understanding of the mechanisms and time听scales of dopamine coding in health and disease.

叠颈辞:听Pascal Kaeser is a native of Switzerland. He obtained his MD degree at the听University of Zurich. In the laboratory of Dr. Adriano Aguzzi, he studied how infectious prions invade the central nervous system during transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. His research on molecular mechanisms at the synapse started with his postdoctoral training in the Laboratory of Dr. Thomas S眉dhof at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and at Stanford University. As a fellow, Pascal discovered mechanisms through which primed synaptic vesicles are coupled to presynaptic calcium channels at sites of exocytosis called active zones. In his own laboratory in the Department of Neurobiology at听Harvard Medical School, Pascal studies how active zones are assembled and how they control neurotransmitter release.
