This lecture continues from part one (previous lesson), highlighting our current understanding and recent developments in the field of neurodegenerative disease research, as well as the future of diagnostics and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

This lecture picks up from the previous lesson, providing an overview of neuroimaging techniques and their clinical applications.

This lesson provides a basic introduction to clinical presentation of schizophrenia, its etiology, and current treatment options.

This lecture focuses on the rationale for employing neuroimaging methods for movement disorders.

The INS Emerging Issues Task Force held a virtual panel discussion on the evolving role and increased adoption of digital applications to deliver mental health care. It was held as a session at the annual conference of the Italian Society for Neuroethics.

This lesson contains both a lecture and a tutorial component. The lecture (0:00-20:03 of YouTube video) discusses both the need for intersectional approaches in healthcare as well as the impact of neglecting intersectionality in patient populations. The lecture is followed by a practical tutorial in both Python and R on how to assess intersectional bias in datasets. Links to relevant code and data are found below. 

This lecture gives an introduction to the types of glial cells, homeostasis (influence of cerebral blood flow and influence on neurons), insulation and protection of axons (myelin sheath; nodes of Ranvier), microglia and reactions of the CNS to injury.

This lesson discusses both state-of-the-art detection and prevention schema in working with neurodegenerative diseases. 

How does the brain learn? This lecture discusses the roles of development and adult plasticity in shaping functional connectivity.

This lesson goes into the mechanisms behind changes in synaptic function created by learning.

This lecture provides an introduction to the application of genetic testing in neurodevelopmental disorders.

In this lesson, you will learn about how genetics can contribute to our understanding of psychiatric phenotypes.

The Allen Mouse Brain Atlas is a genome-wide, high-resolution atlas of gene expression throughout the adult mouse brain. This tutorial describes the basic search and navigation features of the Allen Mouse Brain Atlas.

The Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas is a detailed atlas of gene expression across mouse brain development. This tutorial describes the basic search and navigation features of the Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas.

This tutorial demonstrates how to use the differential search feature of the Allen Mouse Brain Atlas to find gene markers for different regions of the brain, as well as to visualize this gene expression in three-dimensional space. Differential search is also available for the Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas and the Allen Human Brain Atlas.

This lesson provides an overview of GeneWeaver, a web application for the integrated cross-species analysis of functional genomics data to find convergent evidence from heterogeneous sources.

This lesson provides a demonstration of GeneWeaver, a system for the integration and analysis of heterogeneous functional genomics data.

This lecture outlines GeneNetwork.org, a group of linked data sets and tools used to study complex networks of genes, molecules, and higher order gene function and phenotypes.

This tutorial shows how to use the UCSC genome browser to find a list of genes in a given genomic region.

This tutorial shows how to find all the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) upstream from genes using the UCSC Genome Browser.
