MS Mingle Series

Hosted by Drs. Baptiste Lacoste & Jean-Claude Béïque

Learning Objectives:

1. Gain an understanding of the basic science approach to spatial learning and
memory. 

2. Review several papers using temporal coordination theory as a means of
getting to the root of acquired spatial learning and memory deficits in the
animal model of Febrile Status Epilepticus.

3. Demonstrate how the approach to an acquired status epilepticus model can
be applied to a mouse model of developmental encephalopathy; the PTEN
knockout model for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

Please note that OHRI seminars are open to all members of OHRI and partner institutions. Members of the general public are asked to contact the communications office (jganton@ohri.ca) for more information about the research presented at OHRI seminars.
