Experimental Pharmacology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
In the research group Experimental Pharmacology the vast majority of scientists are trained in pharmacology and psychopharmacology. Our team has however a nice complementarity between a number of neuroscientists-pharmacologists engaged in preclinical research, a number of analytical experts looking for new sensitive methods for monitoring numerous neuromediators, brain biomarkers and pharmacological read-outs, and a number of colleagues who ...
Laboratory of Neuronal Communication (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The research interests of the Laboratory of Neuronal Communication are defined as:
Altered synaptic communication has been identified as one of the leading causes of various neurological and psychiatric disorders, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unresolved. Hence, establishing an understanding of synaptic communication at the molecular level in relation to neurological disease, in particular Parkinson’s disease, would be ...
Laboratory for Neuro- and Psychophysiology KU Leuven
The Laboratory for Neuro- and Psychophysiology investigates neural processes underlying visual cognition, mainly of extrastriate or higher order cortices, of human and non-human primates.
The main tools are single-cell and multiple cell recordings, human and awake monkey fMRI, stimulation and inactivation studies, behavioural studies and modeling.
Particular topics of present interest are animate and inanimate object processing, ...
