Title: Intrinsic neuromodulatory dynamics in the basal ganglia of mice
Learning Objectives:
- To learn about novel methodologies to study neuromodulation in mice in vivo
- To learn about the spatiotemporal patterns of dopamine and acetylcholine release in basal ganglia circuits
- To learn about the molecular, cellular and circuit mechanisms shaping dopamine and acetylcholine dynamics
Questions? Please email communications.psychiatry [at] mcgill.ca
Biography:
Nicolas Tritsch, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Neuroscience and Physiology and a member of the Fresco Institute for Parkinson鈥檚 and Movement Disorders at the New York University Grossman School of Medicine. He obtained his undergraduate and master鈥檚 degrees in neuroscience from UU直播, his doctorate in neuroscience from Johns Hopkins University under the mentorship of Dr. Dwight Bergles before completing postdoctoral training with Dr. Bernardo Sabatini at Harvard Medical School. His laboratory combines molecular, genetic, optical and electrophysiological approaches to reveal how brain circuits that control voluntary movements orchestrate the initiation, execution and learning of motor actions, and how neuromodulators like dopamine and acetylcholine modify these processes in health and disease.
