SUMMARY:Lisa Feldman Barrett\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:The McGaugh-Gerard Lecture on Learning and Memory will host guest speaker Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett\, University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University. \nThree Lessons About the Brain \n  \nEver wonder how your brain really works? Join us for the 3rd Annual McGaugh-Gerard Lecture on Learning and Memory by Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett\, an author and expert in psychology and neuroscience\, as she breaks down three key ideas about the brain’s inner workings. In this talk\, you’ll learn: \n\nHow your brain’s most important job is keeping your body running smoothly.\nHow your brain is constantly predicting what will happen next rather than reacting to the world.\nHow feeling and thinking and even seeing follow from your brain’s plan for action; your brain prepares your behavior first and creates your lived experience in the process.\n\nDr. Barrett will show how these brain functions affect how you feel\, how you think\, and what you do.

SUMMARY:Natalie E. Zlebnik – ICAN Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:ICAN Seminar Series\nThursday\, June 1\, 2023 at 11:00am\nThe seminar will be live streamed via Zoom and In-Person.\nZOOM LINK HERE \n \nNatalie E. Zlebnik\, PhD\nDivision of Biomedical Sciences\, University of California\, Riverside School of Medicine \n“Adolescent cannabinoid exposure: effects on dopamine system development and cocaine-motivated behavior”\nAbstract: Cannabis is the most commonly abused illicit drug among adolescents\, and excessive use in this population is associated with the development of psychiatric conditions\, including drug addiction. Adolescence is a critical period for the refinement and organization of neuronal connectivity\, especially within the mesocorticolimbic dopamine circuity. In particular\, dysregulation of the guidance cue receptor\, Dcc\, in ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine neurons disrupts spatiotemporal targeting of dopamine axons to the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). We have previously demonstrated that exposure to amphetamine in early adolescence disrupts the development of dopamine circuitry development\, leading to alterations in cognitive processing and drug seeking in adulthood. Here\, we examine whether exposure to the synthetic cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1R) agonist WIN-55\,212-2 (WIN) in early adolescence regulates Dcc mRNA expression in the VTA and induces alterations in drug-motivated behaviors and in dopamine function in adulthood. Preliminary findings demonstrate that adolescent exposure to WIN downregulates the Dcc receptor in the VTA and disrupts organization of mesocorticolimbic dopamine circuitry. Additionally\, WIN-treated mice display aberrant self-administration of cocaine in the absence of other behavioral impairments. Ongoing experiments will elucidate functional changes in cocaine-evoked phasic dopamine release in the NAc and mPFC. Overall\, these findings support that repeated exposure to a CB1R agonist in adolescence impacts mesocorticolimbic dopamine system maturation and may have important implications for dopamine-mediated learning and psychostimulant-motivated behavior later in life. \nBio: Natalie Zlebnik\, PhD\, is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Biomedical Sciences in the School of Medicine. She earned her doctorate in Neuroscience from the University of Minnesota\, and her postdoctoral fellowship was completed at the University of Maryland School of Medicine\, where her investigations focused on the role of the endocannabinoid system in normal reward-motivated behaviors and its therapeutic role in disorders of reward seeking. Her independent research program examines how drugs of abuse exploit neural mechanisms of motivated behavior to promote relapse and facilitate the transition to drug addiction. The goal is to identify molecular and circuit-level targets for the development of novel therapeutics to reduce drug craving and minimize the propensity to relapse.

SUMMARY:Ted Abel\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:James L. McGaugh Distinguished Lecture \nMolecular Mechanisms of Long-Term Memory Storage \nPlease join the UCI Department of Neurobiology and Behavior in a hybrid event featuring Dr. Ted Abel of the Iowa Neuroscience Institute from the University of Iowa. \n \nAbstract: Research in the Abel lab at the University of Iowa focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying the persistence of memory.  New experiences are initially encoded as labile short-term memories\, which are converted into stable long-term memory by gene transcription-dependent processes during memory consolidation.  In the hours after learning\, the induction of gene expression follows a specific pattern that involves transient waves of transcriptional activity\, which are needed for memory consolidation. This transcriptional regulation is meditated by epigenomic mechanisms such as histone acetylation. These epigenetic modifications are critical for the long-lasting regulation of gene expression during development and may be a major mechanism of information storage in the brain. Changes in these epigenetic modifications contribute to impairments in synaptic plasticity and cognitive function associated with many neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders. Histone acetylation in an important epigenetic mark\, and we have shown that the metabolic enzyme acetyl-CoA synthetase 2 (ACSS2) directly regulates histone acetylation important for long-term spatial memory. ACSS2 is present in the nucleus where it generates acetyl co-A ‘on-site’ at chromatin for histone acetylation and the transcription of key neuronal genes. A critical question has been to identify the genes targeted by these epigenetic regulatory processes. The NR4A “orphan” nuclear receptors are important targets of epigenetic mechanisms mediating memory storage\, and they act as molecular switches for long-term memory storage. In our recent work\, we have shown we have found that NR4A proteins regulate the transcription of genes encoding chaperones that localize to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). These chaperones function to traffic plasticity-related proteins to the cell surface during long lasting forms of synaptic plasticity and memory. Our understanding of the transcriptional cascades that mediate the consolidation and storage of long- term memory may ultimately lead to the development of new treatments for the debilitating cognitive deficits associated with neuropsychiatric\, neurodevelopmental\, and neurodegenerative disorders.

DESCRIPTION:Although education is a key determinant of cognitive function\, its role in determining Black-White disparities in cognitive function is unclear. This may be due\, in part\, to data limitations that have made it difficult to account for systemic educational inequities in the U.S. South experienced by older adults. In this talk\, guest speaker and health policy expert Dr. Katrina Walsemann of the University of Maryland\, College Park\, will present results from her ongoing projects funded by the NIA and the Alzheimer’s Association. RSVP >>

SUMMARY:"How neurons encode memory: Mechanisms of memory formation and persistence"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nLearning and memory are essential for day-to-day living. Equally important\, their alterations are thoughtto underlie neurological and neurodegenerative disorders. Prior work in the field has found many key features of learning and memory—including long-term potentiation and memory engram neurons. However\, many gaps in knowledge remain\, particularly mechanisms at the molecular level. Here\, I will discuss how postsynaptic proteins mediate memory formation and persistence and how they can be modified to improve memory ability. \n\nIf you are unable to join the seminar in person feel free to connect to our live stream via zoom. \n \nMeeting ID: 935 0482 6445\nPassword: 754037
