SUMMARY:Alyson Zalta\, Ph.D
DESCRIPTION:Exploring morning light therapy as a novel treatment for traumatic stress \nCNLM Colloquium UCI Spotlight Series \nJoin the CNLM in a hybrid colloquium featuring Dr. Alyson Zalta\, Associate Professor of Psychological Science at UC Irvine. \nDescription: \nTrauma contributes to a wide variety of mental health problems including posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)\, depression\, anxiety\, substance use\, and suicidality. Although front-line psychotherapies and pharmacotherapies exist for traumatic stress\, evidence suggests that many individuals fail to receive treatment\, remain symptomatic despite treatment\, or drop out of treatment before its conclusion. Uptake of these treatments is poor for several reasons including stigma\, avoidance\, unpleasant side effects\, and poor accessibility. New treatments are needed for traumatic stress that can overcome these critical barriers to care while targeting the underlying biological mechanisms of the pathology. Morning light treatment has good potential as a novel non-invasive\, low risk\, scalable treatment for traumatic stress. Evidence suggests that morning light may improve traumatic stress by reducing reactivity in the amygdala\, a brain region implicated in the pathophysiology of PTSD and anatomically linked to circadian photoreceptors in the eye. This seminar will describe the results of a randomized pilot trial that provides initial proof-of-concept that light treatment can improve traumatic stress and preliminary results from an ongoing randomized clinical trial aimed at evaluating the brain mechanisms underlying morning light therapy for traumatic stress. \n  \nThis event will be held in-person in the Herklotz Conference Center and virtually via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Elizabeth Chrastil\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:NBB Tenure Seminar\nJoin the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior in a hybrid seminar featuring Dr. Elizabeth Chrastil. \nAbstract:  \nNavigation is a central part of daily life. For some\, getting around is easy\, while others struggle. Some clinical populations\, such as those with Alzheimer’s Disease\, display wandering behaviors and extensive disorientation. Working at the interface between immersive virtual reality and neuroimaging techniques\, my research uses these complementary approaches to inform questions about how we acquire and use spatial knowledge. In this talk\, I will discuss both some of my recent work and current experiments that center on three main themes: 1) how we learn new environments\, 2) how the brain tracks spatial information\, and 3) how individuals differ in their spatial abilities. More broadly\, I will discuss how navigation lends insight into processes of human learning and memory. The behavioral and neuroimaging studies presented in this talk inform new frameworks for understanding spatial knowledge\, leading to novel approaches to answering the next major questions in navigation\, learning\, and memory.
