Title |
Neurogenetics (BEFRI) |
Description |
This lecture course focuses on one of the key fields in modern neurobiology, neurogenetics, which attempts to unravel the genetic basis of brain structure, brain development and behaviour. The course mostly refers to the model organism Drosophila but also establishes crucial links with the nematode C. elegans and mammalian model system such as mouse. The course makes participants familiar with the essentials of classical developmental genetics, with contemporary genetic and neurobiological methods in Drosophila, C.elegans and Mouse. It highlights modern neurogenetic research: neurogenesis, brain regionalization, tissue specification, learning and memory and mechanosensations. The course will also focus on disease models for neuronal degeneration and neural tumorigenesis. |
