Population Responses of Living Neural Networks to Periodic Drive
Mentors Project Description The hippocampal formation (HF) in mammals is responsible for collecting information about the sensory world and, if appropriate, storing that information as memories, to be offloaded to other brain structures later. The HF has a number of notable response properties, including nested, quasi-periodic activity. In this project, the student will work with […]
RNA Delivery for Therapeutic Applications
Mentors Project Description Therapeutic RNA delivery has applications in protein replacement, vaccine development, genetic engineering, and even the creation of fundamental research tools and cell lines. In this project, the student will start with a therapeutic target of interest encoded within a DNA plasmid and perform all steps necessary to successfully create RNA, transfect the […]
