In alignment with MultiPark's strategic goals

• Elucidate disease mechanisms at molecular, cellular and circuitry levels, guiding the development of new therapies, such as restoration of lost brain functions based on cell- and gene-based replacement strategies.
• Develop new animal models that better re-capitulate disease related pathology in order to obtain state-of-the art experimental tools for mechanism-oriented studies and drug screening.
• To stay in the forefront of the rapid developments of technology advances in neuroscience and capture their potential to transform tomorrow’s therapies and diagnostics.
• Implement new technologies and concepts to ensure that our strong neuroscience environment remains at the international forefront in the future.
• To maintain and develop MultiPark-supported state-of-the-art technical platforms and infrastructures (e.g. experimental animal models, virus production, advanced imaging and molecular analysis).

Overarching goals

• Create an environment of interactions, sharing and collaboration between groups
• Educate and inform about existing technologies available in the network
• Implement and develop techniques that enable brain circuit analysis

Planned activities

• Topics relevant to our SIG will be covered in the Driver Seat NeuroscienceTalks seminar series
• Upcoming Driver Seat Talks day on Brain Circuit Analysis
