RUI: Developmental Plasticity in Identifiable Neurons

本研究将着重于发育可塑性和 决定神经元命运的重要营养因子 在龙虾里。 研究者将定义发展 以及这些神经元的成年功能;研究这些神经元的生物化学， 可识别神经元的解剖和生理可塑性 并使用控制器控制发射机的“打开和关闭”， 荷尔蒙 结果应该会增加我们对时间的认识 发射机采集以及协助定义一般 指导神经元生化分化的原则。

This research will focus on the developmental plasticity and the trophic factors that are important in determining a neuron's fate in the lobster. The investigator will define the developmental and adult functions of these neurons; study the biochemical, anatomical and physiological plasticity in identifiable neurons and manipulate the "turning on and off" of transmitter using hormones. The outcome should add to our knowledge about timing of transmitter acquisition as well as assist in defining general principles guiding the biochemical differentiation of neurons.
