From Brain Fog to Dementia - How Disease and Aging Can Affect Your Synapses
COURSE
Course description
In this interactive session we will go in-depth into the biology of nerve cell connections (synapses ) and the impacts of aging and disease on these key communication structures. We will discuss cellular and molecular mechanisms, highlighting how these structures are set up during development and how they are impacted by disease and aging, including changes that can contribute to brain fog and dementia. We will also delve into some of the research being done on this topic in the Swayne lab at UVic and some of the research tools (mainly microscopy) used to address these important questions.
Please note that the classes will be recorded, and recordings will be available to registrants for 30 days after the class.
