Du 13 octobre au 1er novembre 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

Synaptic contacts are critical for information transfer in the brain. They are specialized sites, often far from the neuronal cell body, and operate in part as independent units.\u00a0 Synaptic contacts are very diverse and synaptic plasticity underlies memory formation and thought. Synaptic dysfunction is strongly associated with diseases of the brain and this is thought to be an early feature of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson\u2019s and Alzheimer\u2019s disease. The study of the molecular mechanisms of synaptic function and plasticity are the key to understanding how the brain works and what goes wrong in disease. Many of these processes are evolutionarily very well conserved and researchers study synaptic processes in a variety of species and in human neuron models.\u00a0 The training of a new generation of neuroscientists with advanced techniques is crucial to make these studies a success in the coming decades.<\/p>\n

The advanced course will allow students to integrate the basic techniques in molecular and cellular neurobiology with advanced state-of-the art molecular, imaging and functional methodologies, through direct hands-on experiments using a variety of models.<\/p>\n

Fee : 3.500 \u20ac (includes tuition fee, accommodation and meals)<\/p>\n

The CAJAL programme offers 4 stipends per course (waived registration fee, not including travel expenses). Please apply through the course online application form. In order to identify candidates in real need of a stipend, any grant applicant is encouraged to first request funds from their lab, institution or government.<\/p>\n

Kindly note that if you benefited from a Cajal stipend in the past, you are no longer eligible to receive this kind of funding. However other types of funding (such as partial travel grants from sponsors) might be made available after the participants selection process, depending on the course.<\/p>\n

If you are a member of the\u00a0Japan Neuroscience Society (JNS)<\/a>, please check the\u00a0application call for partial grants\u00a0on the\u00a0JNS website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
