Área de actividade científica - Glutamatergic Synapses - Formation and regulation of synapses Neurons have a complex morphology,
with branched dendrites exhibiting thousands of synapses, a specialized region where communication between neurons occurs.
We are interested in understanding how these connections between nerve cells are formed and how they are modified with experience.
The ability of synapses to change their strength is thought to be the cellular correlate of learning and memory, and synaptic
dysfunction is correlated with several neurodegenerative diseases.
We focus on excitatory glutamatergic synapses, and
study their regulation and formation from a cellular and molecular biology viewpoint.
We use a combination of techniques
like primary neuronal cultures, biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology to address these questions.
