DESCRIPTION:The Killam Seminar Series presents Mechanisms and Roles of Fast
  Dopamine Signaling.\n\nRegistration available here.\n\nSpeaker: Pascal S.
  Kaeser\, MD\n\nProfessor\, Department of Neurobiology\, Harvard Medical S
 chool\, Boston\, USA\n\nAbstract: Dopamine is a neuromodulator that codes 
 information on various time scales. I will discuss recent progress on the 
 identification of fast release mechanisms for dopamine in the mouse striat
 um. I will present data on triggering mechanisms of dopamine release and e
 valuate its roles in striatal regulation. In the long-term\, our work will
  allow for a better understanding of the mechanisms and time scales of dop
 amine coding in health and disease.\n\nBio: Pascal Kaeser is a native of S
 witzerland. He obtained his MD degree at the University of Zurich. In the 
 laboratory of Dr. Adriano Aguzzi\, he studied how infectious prions invade
  the central nervous system during transmissible spongiform encephalopathi
 es. His research on molecular mechanisms at the synapse started with his p
 ostdoctoral training in the Laboratory of Dr. Thomas Südhof at the Univers
 ity of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and at Stanford University. As a 
 fellow\, Pascal discovered mechanisms through which primed synaptic vesicl
 es are coupled to presynaptic calcium channels at sites of exocytosis call
 ed active zones. In his own laboratory in the Department of Neurobiology a
 t Harvard Medical School\, Pascal studies how active zones are assembled a
 nd how they control neurotransmitter release.\n\n\nSupported by the genero
 sity of the Killam Trusts \, The Neuro’s Killam Seminar series hosts outst
 anding guest speakers.\n
