High-Throughput Imaging of Mesoscopic Functional Connectivity in Mouse Cortex: Insights for Brain Injury and Psychiatric Disorders

Timothy Murphy, PhD

Professor, Department of Psychiatry

University of British Columbia

Thursday March 10, 2016

3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Canadian Centre for Behavioural Neuroscience

Everyone is Welcome!

Dr. Murphy earned his PhD from Johns Hopkins in 1989, and is a Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of British Columbia. He is a world-renowned pioneer of optical imaging in neuroscience research. His group is actively constructing and optimizing instrumentation for in vivo structural and functional brain imaging to investigate mouse models of human disease. Specifically, Dr. Murphy’s lab employs optogenetic tools to provide light-activated loss or gain of circuit function in order to test circuit-based hypotheses about stroke recovery.
