Experimental and computational neuroscience research lab of Ivan Soltesz at Stanford University. We study interneurons, cannabinoids, memory, and epilepsy.
This team aims to discover whether the brain’s endocannabinoid system is dysregulated during aging, triggering inflammation via prostaglandins. If so, a drug that decouples these systems might restore a youthful brain state and rescue cognitive function. https://t.co/s6QF8oMhVv
Getting excited to start my lab at Baylor soon! Recruiting lab members to Houston - please RT or tell people who may be interested! https://t.co/zA5alYrGBV #interneuron#Epilepsy#neuroscience#postdocjobs
*New paper* on ripple-selective GABAergic projection cells led by Gergely Szabo in @NeuroCellPress . Thanks to all who contributed incl. @J_S_Farrell@BarnaDudok @JDimidschstein and others. pdf here>https://t.co/7pUEF6RpV5
Our latest work by recent postdoc Hannah Kim using closed-loop optogenetic activation of inhibitory cells in CA1 to abort seizures, resulting in amelioration of epilepsy-associated memory deficits. https://t.co/owhjMQOpNi
