The Canadian Open Neuroscience Platform (CONP) is a national platform for open sharing of neuroscience research data and brings together many of the country’s leading scientists in basic and clinical neuroscience to form an interactive network of collaborations in brain research

Recording the electrical impulses of neurons with optical methods in the brain will be enormously beneficial for understanding how the healthy brain functions, as well as how diseases of the brain impact its normal function.

Antibody (Ab)-based therapeutics are the fastest growing class of drugs, with approximately 60 approved molecules that represent a market of over $80B.

Women are more likely than men to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, and they also tend to develop greater declines in memory and other cognitive functions.

The overarching aim of Ms Morena’s research is to investigate the role of the endocannabinoid system in the modulation of memory processes and its interaction with stress and emotional arousal in animal models of cognition, at a cellular, circuit and behavioural level.

The project provides state of the art mouse brain imaging to researchers in Canada working on models of neurodevelopmental disorders.
