Long noncoding RNA in space and time, and the regulation of fear extinction [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2024 ]

Research Grant

Brief description Most of our genome is made up noncoding RNA; however, nothing is known about why a special class of noncoding RNA would be expressed in synapses, and how this affects learning and memory related to neuropsychiatric disorders. Understanding the fundamental molecular machinery underlying the formation of fear extinction memory will enable the development of new treatment approaches for anxiety-related disorders that are characterised by memory deficits.
