---------------------------------------------- Department of Biological Sciences Special Seminar

Dr. Ray W. Turner, Professor Hotchkiss Brain Institute Dept Cell Biology & Anatomy University of Calgary

Friday September 21, 2012 10:30-11:30 AM Rm 115 Armes Bldg. Fort Garry Campus

"Regulating cerebellar input and output by a calcium-potassium channel complex"

All are welcome to attend.

Dr Turner's research has focused on understanding the development of electrical excitability in Purkinje neurons of the cerebellum, a part of the brain that plays a role in several forms of learning, co-ordinates movement and underlies some conditioned behaviors. His research employs several cutting edge techniques including electrophysiology, protein biochemistry and mathematical modeling of neuronal activity.
