  • Molecular Physiology of Sound Encoding at the Hair Cell Synapse
    • - Tobias Moser, M.D., University of Goettingen, Germany (2010/12/16)
    • - Category : Neuroscience
    Neuroscience Seminar Series

    Dr. Mosers group focuses on the molecular physiology and pathology of the hair cell ribbon synapse. Molecular dissection and detailed physiological characterization of ribbon synapse function have only recently become possible using novel molecular and biophysical techniques. Dr. Moser combines single cell RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry of hair cells with auditory physiology (recordings of otoacoustic emissions, compound action potentials and auditory brainstem responses) and in-depth biophysical analysis of the hair cell ribbon synapse in normal and mutant mice. The biophysical approach includes patch-clamp and optical methods to investigate membrane currents, synaptic membrane turnover and stimulus-secretion coupling in hair cells from the mouse. The group has significantly contributed to understanding hair cell ribbon synapse function.

  • Imaging and Stimulating Human Brain Remodeling
    • - Heidi Johansen-Berg, Ph.D., , University of Oxford, United Kingdom (2010/12/16)
    • - Category : Neuroscience
    Neuroscience Seminar Series

    Animal studies show that the adult brain shows remarkable plasticity in response to learning or recovery from injury. Non-invasive brain imaging techniques can be used to detect systems-level structural and functional plasticity in the human brain. This talk will focus on how brain imaging has allowed us to monitor healthy brains learning new motor skills and to assess how damaged brains recover. For example, structural and diffusion MRI shows that learning to juggle changes not only grey matter but also white matter in healthy brains. In patients recovering after a stroke to one side of their brain, functional MRI and transcranial magnetic stimulation provide evidence for increased recruitment of areas in the healthy side of the brain. Combining structural and functional approaches allows us to demonstrate that motor practice can functionally rescue regions that are structurally compromised following damage.

    New developments in brain stimulation raise exciting opportunities for manipulating brain remodelling. Using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to the motor cortex we can speed people???s learning of a new task, alter their brain chemistry, or temporarily improve hand function in stroke patients. FMRI identifies changes in cortical activity that may mediate these functional benefits. In future, imaging could be used to guide individually targeted brain stimulation to enhance recovery after damage.

    Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act 2010 (Affordable Health Care for America Act) became law on March 30, 2010. Extensive discussion and media coverage have focused on the impact on health care services. Yet, news stories scarcely mentioned the role for NIH in enabling health care reform through scientific advances. This forum will describe provisions in the bill of interest to NIH and the potential use of NIH expertise in implementing the objectives of the Act. Will execution of the law require changes in programmatic and funding priorities? Come and learn what the future may hold for you.

  • Telomerase and the Consequences of Telomere Dysfunction
    • - Carol Greider, Ph.D., Nobel Laureate, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine (2010/12/16)
    • - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
    Telomeres protect chromosome ends from being recognized as DNA damage and chromosomal rearrangements. Conventional replication leads to telomere shortening, but telomere length is maintained by the enzyme telomerase that synthesizes telomere sequences de novo onto chromosome ends. Telomerase is specialized reverse transcriptase, requiring both a catalytic protein and an essential RNA component. In the absence of telomerase, telomeres shorten progressively as cells divide, and telomere function is lost. For this reason, telomerase is required for cells that undergo many rounds of divisions, especially tumor cells and some stem cells. The Greider lab is focused understanding telomerase and cellular and organismal consequences of telomere dysfunction. We use biochemistry, yeast and mice to examine telomere function. We generated telomerase null mice that are viable and show progressive telomere shortening for up to six generations. In the later generations, when telomeres are short, cells die via apoptosis or senescence. Crosses of these telomerase null mice to other tumor prone mice show that tumor formation can be greatly reduced by short telomeres. We also are using our telomerase null mice to explore the role of telomerase stem cells and aging. In human families, Telomerase mutations cause autosomal dominant dyskeratosis congenita and the associated bone marrow failure. We have developed a strain of mice that are haploinsufficient for telomerase and show many hallmarks of dyskeratosis congenita and age related degenerative disease. Our lab is focused on understanding how short telomeres cause these diseases as well as the mechanisms that regulate telomere length equilibrium.

    Lecture Objectives:
    1. Understand the role of telomerase in telomere length
    2. Understand the effect of short telomeres in cancer cell growth
    3. Discuss role of telomere shortening in age related disease

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

    • - Category : Conferences
    The conference will make use of case studies that pose difficult questions about what kinds of research, methods and analyses should be used to address limitations in current evidence for interventions and tests being examined by decision-making bodies. The cases will address a variety of important comparative effectiveness research questions facing U.S. researchers, care providers, health systems, and patients. This conference is being convened at a historic moment for the biomedical, clinical, biostatistical, research design and health services research communities. With the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), the nation stands at a critical juncture, as it ramps up efforts to streamline the delivery of high quality healthcare, bend the cost curve and ensure improved health outcomes.
