iCeMS Learning Lounge #11

Why Our Science Matters

The “Learning Lounge” features young scientists who, in 20 minutes deliver a presentation that will persuade any curious listener, even those without a scientific background, why their research area — not just the personal research of the speaker — is important to the world.

 

Ms. Kelly Kawabata (iCeMS Mineko Kengaku Lab)

Shapes of Neurons Shape Our Behavior

How does your brain recognize a fly, decide to catch it, and then move your hand? Even a simple activity such as this requires neurons to make many, many precise connections in the brain. Different neuronal shapes can control the way connections are made, and studying the rules of how these shapes are formed can help us better understand how the brain works.
