Intended Audience
The Neuroscience Program welcomes Dr. George Vidal, assistant professor of biology at James Madison University, who will give the third lecture in its 2020-2021 seminar series.
"A neuroanatomical link to autism? Exploring dendritic morphology in cerebral cortical neurons during early brain development."
The way dendrites grow and branch in the cerebral cortex in early development is linked to many neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism. How does the cerebral cortex organize dendritic branching? Are there molecules that could serve as organizers of dendritic branching? This talk will discuss one undergraduate research group's way of answering these questions.
