SUMMARY:Laura Ewell\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:CNLM Colloquium UCI Spotlight Series \nJoin the CNLM in a hybrid colloquium featuring Dr. Laura Ewell\, Assistant Professor of Anatomy and Neurobiology at UC Irvine. \nSparse to dense networks: pattern separation and completion in health and epilepsy. \nDescription: The attractor theory of memory posits that CA3\, the recurrent network at the core of the hippocampus\, is capable of learning\, storing\, and recalling ensembles of neurons that represent experience. In healthy conditions there are constraints on the CA3 network that ensure that individual neural patterns comprise a small group of neurons that do not overlap with other patterns. One critical constraint called pattern separation works at the network level – and is thought to be performed by the dentate gyrus. In this talk\, I will be examining the network processes of pattern separation and pattern completion through the lens of temporal lobe epilepsy – a disease in which network codes shift from sparse to dense schemes. We will discuss single unit data from freely moving rodents (epilepsy models and healthy animals) and new tasks being developed by my laboratory to study these critical memory processes. \nThis event will be held in-person in the Herklotz Conference Center and virtually via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Leslie Thompson\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:CNLM Colloquium UCI Spotlight Series \nJoin the CNLM in a hybrid colloquium featuring Dr. Leslie Thompson\, Professor of Psychiatry & Human Behavior at UC Irvine. \nHuntington’s disease research and therapeutics; the long winding road \nHuntington’s disease is a devastating neurodegenerative disease that typically strikes in the prime of life with no disease modifying treatment. It is caused by a repeat expansion within the coding region of the protein Huntingtin which is expressed throughout the body and is required for a vast array of cellular processes. The disease mutation causes both a gain of function and loss of normal function which adds significant complexity to understanding disease mechanisms and advancing therapeutics. In this talk I will describe three vignettes relating to disease mechanisms and therapeutic approaches undertaken in the laboratory. \nThis event will be held in-person in the Herklotz Conference Center and virtually via Zoom.

SUMMARY:UCI CFAR-DS Seminar Series - Dr. Beau Ances
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the UCI Center for Aging Research in Down Syndrome (CFAR-DS) Seminar Series on May 26 at 11 am PT. We are thankful to have Dr. Beau Ances from Washington University in St. Louis visiting the University of California\, Irvine for this seminar. Over the past 15 years\, the Ances Bioimaging Laboratory (ABL) has focused on developing novel biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases including HIV associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND)\, Alzheimer’s disease (AD)\, autoimmune encephalitis\, and Down syndrome. Dr. Ances will give a talk titled “Alzheimer Disease in Down Syndrome: One extra chromosome\, two extra hugs.” The presentation will be held in the Herklotz Conference Room but if you are not able to make it to the UCI campus\, you can attend through Zoom.
