BME Seminar Series: How does neuronal activity protect the cortex from stroke?

McDonnell Douglas Engineering Auditorium 314 Los Trancos Drive, Irvine, CA, United States

Abstract: Stroke is the fifth leading cause for death in the U.S. and No. 1 cause for long term disability. Traditionally, stroke has been studied in animal models using cellular and molecular techniques, but little attention has been paid to neuronal activity. In this talk, I will describe surprising findings in a rat model of ischemic stroke…
