The
Neuroscience
Program presents
Human-specific genetic modifiers of synaptic development and their impact on circuit function and disease expression
| Speaker:
|
Franck Polleux, PhD
Professor, Columbia University
Department of Neuroscience
Mortimer B. Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute
|
| Location:
|
Hybrid In Person RGN Room 2005 and ZOOM

Hosted by Drs. Baptiste Lacoste and Simon Chen
Learning Objectives
1. Gain an understanding of the genetic mechanisms shaping human brain
evolution.
2. Understand the impact of one human-specific genetic modifier, the humans specific gene duplications SRGAP2B/C, on synaptic development, circuit
function and behavioral performance.
3. Gain an understanding that human-specific gene duplications are not only
relevant to understand human brain evolution but also represent the first
documented example of human-specific modifiers of disease expression.
