The nerve cells in our brains are in constant communication to sustain life. Communication involves one nerve cell responding to electrical stimulation by releasing chemical messengers, from vesicles, onto the next cell. Our research focuses on the mechanism of recycling of vesicles. Targeting this mechanism is a way to gain fundamental knowledge of how to intervene medically when communication fails, or when communication needs to be dampened, in neurological diseases.

我们大脑中的神经细胞不断交流以维持生命。通信涉及一个神经细胞通过释放化学信使对电刺激做出反应，从囊泡到下一个细胞。我们的研究重点是囊泡的再循环机制。针对这一机制是一种获得基本知识的方法，即当神经系统疾病中的沟通失败或需要抑制沟通时，如何进行医学干预。
