Description of Research |
|
Summary Statement of Research Interests |
|
| Professor Baudry researches learning and memory in the brain and is involved with several collaborative projects including the Human Brain Project and a biomedical engineering project exploring the neural tissue/silicon chip interface. He studies the following points of investigation: Mechanisms implicated in long-term synaptic potentiation (LTP) and depression (LTD) in hippocampus and other brain regions; regulation of glutamate receptors; role of oxygen free radicals in neurodenerative diseases and the central nervous system; and mechanisms underlying selective neuronal degeneration. | |
