Evening with Neuroscience
The Grey Matter Journal is a student-run group that works to create accessible and entertaining neuroscience education through quarterly publications and outreach events. This year will be their 10th annual An Evening with Neuroscience (EWN), and anyone and everyone is invited to come learn about neuroscience from professionals in the field!
Participants will have the unique opportunity to see live human brain demonstrations; interact with neurotechnology; view neuroscience art; hear from professors, researchers, and clinicians at the forefront of the neuroscience field; and ask questions in our Q&A panel. A food truck will be provided before, during, and after the event!
EWN is a free event and is open to all members of the public. Please visit their website to RSVP here. RSVPs can be made anytime prior to the event.
Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Kane Hall (KNE). Online Meeting Link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClQ2JVSHGdaPb5elQE5QoHA. Accessibility Contact: thalamus@greymattersjournal.org. Event Types: Academics.

NEURO 510: Decoding hidden risk in neural developmental and degenerative disorders
The Neuroscience Seminar Series welcomes Dr. Tim Cherry to present his work on "Decoding hidden risk in neural developmental and degenerative disorders"
Many complex neural disorders are associated with genetic risk, however a major gap exists in matching diseases with causative genetic variants and underlying cellular-molecular mechanisms. In this presentation, we will explore neural developmental disorders such as congenital hydrocephalus and neurodegenerative disorders such as age-related macular degeneration and demonstrate cutting-edge approaches to understand the hidden genetic risk driving these disorders.

NEURO 510: "Beyond the Neuroscience of Fear and the Amygdala: How Trauma and PTSD may be Associated with Sensory Changes and Aggression across species
The Neuroscience Seminar Series is hosting Dr. Kerry Ressler MD,PhD, Chief Scientific Officer at McLean Hospital and a Professor of Psychiatry from Harvard University Medical School.
Title: Beyond the Neuroscience of Fear and the Amygdala: How Trauma and PTSD may be Associated with Sensory Changes and Aggression across species
Summary: PTSD involves exposure to a severe traumatic event followed by avoidance/numbing, intrusive symptoms and flashbacks, mood and cognitive disruptions, and hyperarousal/reactivity symptoms; feelings of pervasive fear; as well as increased defensive and aggression behaviors. I will provide updates on large scale human genetics and neurobiology from consortia-based PTSD studies, as well as present data demonstrating structural and functional changes in auditory cortex, visual cortex, and olfactory bulb across model systems following sensory-specific fear learning (in mice) or trauma exposure (in humans). I’ll also share recent data from our group on the role of central amygdala…
