Homeostatic Plasticity in Health and Disease
UCSF, Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics; Director, Kavli Institute for Fundamental Neuroscience
Hosted by Manitoba Neuroscience Network
Abstract
Dr. Davis will present a summary regarding the identification and characterization of mechanisms of homeostatic plasticity as they relate to the control of synaptic transmission. He will then provide evidence of translation to the mammalian neuromuscular junction and central synapses, and provide tangible links to the etiology of neurological disease.
