ICAN Seminar with Kristina Uban
Dr. Uban received her Ph.D. in Behavioral Neuroscience from the University of British Columbia. Dr. Uban’s research utilizes multi-modal neuroimaging and salivary biosciences to non-invasively examine brain-hormone relationships in children and adolescents. Specifically, her research focuses on the impact of prenatal exposure to alcohol on neurobiological propensity for cognitive and mental health problems in males…
MSTP Distinguished Lecture Series

Miranda Lim, MD, PhD
“The Function of Early Life Sleep in Development: Lessons from the Prairie Vole” Abstract: Despite spending almost one third of our lives asleep, the function of sleep remains one of biology’s greatest mysteries. Nearly all animals sleep more early in life, suggesting a highly conserved role for sleep in development. Indeed, disrupted sleep specifically during…
Florian Plattner, Ph.D.
UCI MIND is hosting a special seminar with Dr. Florian Plattner titled: Molecular mechanisms underlying memory enhancement and Alzheimer's disease Dr. Plattner is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Center.
Michael Scofield, Ph.D.
Dr. Scofield is interested in the cellular substrates of drug addiction with a focus on the molecular underpinnings of relapse vulnerability. To date, studies in his laboratory have been focused on the corticostriatal pathway, heavily implicated in drug seeking and relapse. One unique aspect of their group is that the studies performed in the lab…
Adam Kepecs, Ph.D.
Dr. Kepecs' lab studies the neurobiological principles underlying cognition and decision-making. Using state-of-the-art technologies, his team interrogates neural circuits in rodents as they perform a task, validating their findings with…
