Introduction to Symposium on Science Management at the Canadian Association for Neuroscience 2019 Meeting.

The landscape of scientific research is changing. Today’s researchers need to participate in large-scale collaborations, obtain and manage funding, share data, publish, and undertake knowledge translation activities in order to be successful. As per these increasing demands, Science Management is now a vital piece of the environment.

This panel discussion of area experts whom have extensive experience with management in a science setting. 

This lecture covers an introduction to connectomics, and image processing tools for the study of connectomics. 

This lecture covers acquisition techniques, the physics of MRI, diffusion imaging, prediction using fMRI. 

This lecture will provide an overview of neuroimaging techniques and their clinical applications.

Optical imaging offers a look inside the working brain. This lecture takes a look at orientation and ocular dominance columns in the visual cortex, and shows how they can be viewed with calcium imaging.

Functional imaging has led to the discovery of a plethora of visual cortical regions. This lecture introduces functional imaging techniques and their teachings about the visual cortex.

Investigating the structure of synapses with electron microscopy.

Ion channels and the movement of ions across the cell membrane.

Action potentials, and biophysics of voltage-gated ion channels.

Voltage-gating kinetics of sodium and potassium channels.

The ionic basis of the action potential, including the Hodgkin Huxley model.

Action potential initiation and propagation.

Long-range inhibitory connections in the brain, with examples from three different systems.

An overview of some of the essential concepts in neuropharmacology (e.g. receptor binding, agonism, antagonism), an introduction to pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics, and an overview of the drug discovery process relative to diseases of the Central Nervous System.
