  • Stereotyped Spatial Orientation of the Retinotopically-ordered Retinal Projection Fields: A Prosomeric Model Analysis
    • - Luis Puelles, MD, PhD, University of Murcia, Spain (2012/04/11)
    • - Category : Neuroscience
    Neuroscience Seminar Series

    Prof. Puelles is a developmental neurobiologist who has been at the forefront of efforts to understand the ontological trajectory of the vertebrate brain using, for example, the expression of transcription factors at different embryonic stages of development. Some examples of his work include the use of gene expression patterns to characterize the segmental organization of the forebrain in the so-called prosomeric model (Puelles and Rubenstein, 2003). His work has also elucidated the developmental organization and fate-mapping of the telencephalic vesicles, which ultimately form the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, septum, amygdala, basal ganglia (Puelles,2011). Much of his work has focused on the pallial and subpallial components that contribute to various telencephalic structures, such as the septum and amygdala in mammals and the dorsal ventricular ridge in sauropsids (Puelles, 2001a, 2001b). His work has broad and important implications for understanding the overall organization and connectivity of large-scale neural systems in the vertebrate brain, including that of humans. Understanding the basic Bauplan of the brain serves as a critical backdrop for understanding normal brain function as well as dysfunction associated with neurological and psychiatric disease.

  • What Doesn???t Kill you Makes you Fatter: Neurobiological Mechanisms Underlying Effects of Nicotine on Addiction and Appetite
    • - Dr. Marina Picciotto, Yale University (2012/04/01)
    • - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
    We all know people who smoke and have trouble quitting. People report that they smoke for different reasons including the desire to control their appetite, as a way to manage depression or anxiety or just because they relapse when they try to quit. It is now clear that nicotine is critical for both tobacco addiction as well as the other behavioral changes that occur from smoking. Nicotine hijacks receptors throughout the brain that normally respond to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. There are many different types of these receptors that are found in brain areas important for reward and addiction, anxiety, depression and appetite. Recent studies have identified the molecules and brain areas responsible for many of these nicotine-induced behaviors. These findings have resulted in new ways to think about and treat smoking addiction, and have helped us understand more about the molecules and circuits in the brain that normally use the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

    The NIH Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series includes weekly scientific talks by some of the top researchers in the biomedical sciences worldwide.

    This presentation will explore the considerable controversy in the research community about using stored pediatric biospecimens from grown donors, and specifically whether it is ethically appropriate to seek or waive consent for studies when pediatric donors reach the age of majority. Confusion about ethical and legal obligations and the complicated logistics of re-contacting pediatric donors and/or their families have plagued pediatric investigators despite the potential for advancing scientific knowledge, diagnostic capability, and therapeutic practice.
