The Neuroscience Methods and Techniques section is dedicated to publishing research focused on innovative methodological approaches in the field of neuroscience.
Led by Prof. Francisco Barrantes from the Laboratory of Molecular Neurobiology at the Institute of Biomedical Research (BIOMED), Pontifical Catholic University of Argentina (UCA) and the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Argentina (CONICET), the Neuroscience Methods and Techniques section welcomes submissions in various domains of neuroscience, and calls for multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary strategies which aim to address the complex nature of the nervous system and contribute to solving fundamental questions in the field.
Topics considered in the scope of this section include:
* Deep learning artificial intelligence applications to study spatially resolved transcriptomics
* Ex vivo live-cell superresolution optical microscopy of nerve cells, subcellular structures, and molecules
* Image restoration and resolution enhancement of nervous system microscopy images using artificial intelligence technology
* Minimally traumatic in vivo deep-tissue imaging of brain cells and circuits in behaving animals, including development of new miniature endoscopic, nano-fiberoptics, and live imaging techniques
* Monobody and nanobody technologies, including nanotube biosensors, with selectivity for neuronal, glia, neurotransmitters, and other molecules
* Nanopore-based techniques for sequencing at single-cell and synapse levels
* New developments and strategies to study evolutionary cognitive profiles across species
* Optical and other (e.g., ultrasound) microscopies to address mesoscale functional connectomics; deep learning integration of multiscale functional connectomics
* Proteomic landscaping of individual brain cell subtypes and microscopy-guided proteomics of other nervous system structures, including synaptic proteomic heterogeneity
* Single-cell and individual synapse lipidome
Submissions should provide detailed, in-depth knowledge about innovative methodological approaches in neuroscience, addressing both experimental and theoretical aspects, as well as computational-based approaches or combinations thereof.
The section welcomes submissions which support and advance the SDG: SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being, SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure.
Studies that focus on medical treatments or application of medical techniques without neuroscientific foundations are out of scope for this section. Studies with emphasis on clinically-oriented neuroimaging studies involving e.g., magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional MRI (fMRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), structural imaging or other imaging modalities of living humans and animal models may be more suitable for our sister section Frontiers in Neuroscience – Brain Imaging Methods.
At The End:
This multidisciplinary section is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating cutting-edge scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries in the field of neuroscience to researchers, industry, policymakers, and the public worldwide.
* Fundamentals of bioelectricity * The importance of resting potential * The properties of passive membranes * Action potentials, their currents, and their role in the nervous system * How you can do neuroscience in your home
Fundamentals of Neuroscience is a three-course series that explores the structure and function of the nervous system—from the inner workings of a single nerve cell to the staggering complexity of the brain and the social interactions they enable. In this first course, you'll learn how individual neurons use electricity to transmit information. You'll build a neuron, piece by piece, using interactive simulations, then travel around Harvard's campus, where you'll see the inner workings of a lab and learn how to conduct DIY neuroscience experiments on your own. Join us as we study the electrical properties in individual neurons, building a foundation for understanding the function of the entire nervous system.
Students diagnose hypothetical patients through simulated lab tests. In determining which tests to perform students learn about the effects of different environmental toxins on brain development. Students then create a timeline of brain development and indicate the key developmental stages affected by the different toxins.
