Mapping learning-dependent remodelling of synapse balance across the brain [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Brief description This project will elucidate how the brain remodels the balance of excitatory ‘go’ and inhibitory ‘stop’ connections and how disrupted balance underlies maladaptive behaviour in autism spectrum disorders. Combining an international team with innovative behavioural and imaging methods, we will establish a platform for imaging individual brain connections across whole mouse brains, bridging current methods in worldwide initiatives mapping brain connectivity at different scales in animals to humans.
