Synaptic Neurochemistry
The Synaptic Neurchemistry Laboratory’s main interests are the mechanisms underlying synaptic transmission: energy supply, and localization, synthesis, packaging, release, action and recycling of neuro- and gliotransmitters.
About
These mechanisms are studied in normal and pathological conditions, and during ontogenetic development and ageing.
Our main aim is to study synaptic function under physiological conditions and to investigate how the factors contributing to normal signalling are altered in disease, identifying new therapeutic strategies.
The laboratory is part of the Centre of Molecular Biology and Neuroscience (CMBN) and consists of two underlying research groups:
