SUMMARY:Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences Research Seminar Series: Kevin Beier\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Parallel Dopamine Circuits Mediate Unique Aspects of Cocaine-Induced Behavioral Plasticity  \n  \nPlease join the UCI School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences in a virtual seminar featuring Kevin Beier\, Ph.D. \n  \nAbstract: \nMy research is focused on identifying how experience modulates activity dynamics in neural circuits\, both acutely and chronically. I aim to develop new methods and use these in combination with modern techniques such as optogenetics and in-vivo calcium imaging to understand the sources of adaptive and maladaptive plasticity that drive normal and pathophysiological behaviors. These include reward/aversion processing in normal appetitive behaviors\, drug addiction\, neurodegeneration\, and neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism. I will also employ cutting-edge viral-genetic methods to map brain state-dependent activity in connected neural ensembles\, and use this information to infer how our brain state drives us to perform particular behaviors. I also aim to take novel approaches to interrogating the sources of individual behavioral variation in neuropsychiatric conditions such as addiction\, anxiety\, and depression.

SUMMARY:Keys to Successful Aging
DESCRIPTION:We all want to enjoy a satisfying old age. Happily\, research is providing us with some pointers\, ranging from understanding of how to maintain psychological and physical health to insights into molecular changes in the aging brain and how we may be able to reverse them. \nJoin Annual Reviews and Knowable Magazine for a scientific exploration of why old age is often associated with high levels of emotional well-being\, even with declines in body and mind. The free online event will feature Q&As with three important contributors to the study of aging. \nExpert speakers include: \n\nSusan Turk Charles\, Professor of Psychological Science at UC Irvine’s School of Social Ecology\nDaniel Levitin\, Founding Dean of Arts & Humanities at the Minerva Schools at KGI in San Francisco\, and Professor Emeritus of psychology and neuroscience at McGill University\nSaul Villeda\, Assistant Professor of Anatomy at UCSF’s School of Medicine\n\nModerated by Richard Gallagher\, President and Editor-in-Chief\, Annual Reviews \nA Zare Science Forum X Knowable Magazine event.

SUMMARY:Black in Neuro Seminar Series: Dr. Yasmin Hurd
DESCRIPTION:Black in Neuroscience…the Road Less Traveled to Scientific Discoveries” \nPlease join Black in Neuro for a virtual seminar featuring Dr. Yasmin Hurd\, Director of the Addiction Institute within the Mount Sinai Behavioral Health System and the Ward Coleman Chair of Translational Neuroscience and Professor of Psychiatry and Neuroscience at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York. \nPlease register here to attend. \n  \nAbout Dr. Hurd:\nDr. Yasmin Hurd is an internationally renowned neuroscientist whose translational research examines the neurobiology of drug abuse and related psychiatric disorders. Her research exploring the neurobiological effects of cannabis and heroin has significantly shaped the field. Using multidisciplinary research approaches\, her research has provided unique insights into the impact of developmental cannabis exposure and epigenetic mechanisms underlying the drug’s protracted effects into adulthood and even across generations. Dr. Hurd’s basic science research is complemented by clinical laboratory investigations evaluating the therapeutic potential of novel science-based strategies for the treatment of opioid addiction and related psychiatric disorders. Based on these high impact accomplishments and her advocacy of drug addiction education and health\, Dr. Hurd was inducted into the National Academy of Medicine that complements other honors she has received in the field. In 2020\, she also received the Mika Salpeter Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society for Neuroscience. The impact of her research has also attracted popular attention\, including articles and interviews in Time magazine\, The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, and on CNN\, PBS NOVA\, PBS/Netflix series Human: The World Within; Netflix series (The Business of Drugs); NPR/Freakonomics radio. \n
