每日大赛网站 research students working in the neuroscience labratory of Biology professor Barbara Clancy have characterized a region of the brain that has never been mapped before, and today they will present their results at a State Neuroscience Conference in Little Rock, in advance of a presentation at the International Society for Neuroscience Conference in San Diego on Nov. 4.
Clancy and current 每日大赛网站 student Terri Teague-Ross will join with former 每日大赛网站 students Susan Lantz, Amanda Plummer, Debbie Soellner and James Hyde to present the work in San Diego. Hyde will travel from his current research lab at the Riken Brain Research Institute in Japan.
每日大赛网站 Alumni Shannon Palmer, Pia Sellabos and Amber Fason participated in a second line of research that includes results from a study analyzed in collaboration with 每日大赛网站 Mathematics professor George Bratton. Bratton, who will also attend the international conference in San Diego, used a novel approach to evaluate an effect of anesthesia given at birth on behavior at late adulthood; such long-term effects have never been reported previously. The poster presentations are entitled “Ketamine therapy in newborn rats is associated with altered behavior in late adulthood” and “Mapping the subplate: Where does it lead us?”
