Cagla Eroglu presents research on how astrocytes regulate synaptic connectivity during development, function and plasticity. The seminar examines molecular and cellular mechanisms that shape neural circuits using imaging, mouse models and complementary experimental approaches.

Kuan Hong Wang examines how dopaminergic, cannabinoid, and neuroimmune signaling regulate circuit plasticity across development, experience, and disease, and how cross-species work may inform selective therapies.
