The journal club includes participants from the Kelly, Kalin, Benca, and Landry labs. Times are arranged each semester. The group discusses cellular aspects of neuroscience, with a focus on cytoskeleton and cytoplasmic events underlying the development of axons and dendrites. The group is comprised of members of Peter Baas's, Kate Kalil's, and Ian Duncan's laboratories. Faculty participating in the group also include Miles Epstein and Philippa Claude.
Participants are faculty, postdocs, research staff and students.
Areas covered include mechanisms underlying necrotic and apoptotic cell death during ischemic and traumatic brain damage and effective intervention to protect these damages. Both in vivo and in vitro studies are discussed. Participants are faculty, post-docs and graduate students who are interested in any facet of audition. Faculty participants come from the Departments of Neurophysiology, Psychology, Anatomy, and Communicative Disorders and include Brugge, Fettiplace, Fowler, Geisler, Jenison, Kluender, Lutfi, Oertel, Pasic, Rhode, Smith, Trussell, Wightman and Yin. Approximately 30 participants take turns in presenting research results or reviews of journal articles in an informal setting.
