Fundamental Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms governing Brain Development

The symposium will start with Prof Cooper who will present “From neural tube to neocortex: the role of adhesion in maintaining stem cell morphology and function”. Then, Dr Tsai will talk about “In the search for new genes involved in brain development and disorders”. Dr Del Pino will deal with the “Regulation of intrinsic network activity during area patterning in the cerebral cortex”, and Dr Wang will present “Modelling Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Flies”.
