The Spinal Cord Research Centre would like to invite you to listen in our 2025 Research Seminar Series
" Longitudinal spinal circuits for motor control"
Martha Bagnall, PhD
Associate Professor,
Department of Neuroscience,
Washington University, USA
Dr. Bagnall worked with Sascha du Lac at the Salk Institute. There she studied intrinsic, synaptic, and circuit function in the mouse vestibular brainstem and cerebellum. During a postdoctoral position with Massimo Scanziani, she mapped the thalamic projection to inhibitory neurons in barrel cortex. Next, with David McLean at Northwestern University, she found that the spinal circuit in zebrafish contains parallel but distinct premotor pathways for independent control of dorsal and ventral musculature. The Bagnall lab at Washington University studies motor and postural circuits in zebrafish.
