This episode of MPFI's Neurotransmissions Podcast dives into the fascinating world of neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to change and adapt. We're joined by Dr. Anant Jain. Anant joined
Centre for High Impact Neuroscience and Translational Applications (CHINTA) in Kolkata, India in November 2023. His lab focuses on understanding the molecular signaling underlying homeostatic plasticity that gets activated to compensate for the behaviorally relevant synaptic changes. Moreover, his lab seeks to address how these homeostatic mechanisms get disrupted during neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism. He also tells us about his bold decision to relocate from the USA to India to open his research lab. We explore the challenges and rewards of pursuing scientific discovery in a new environment.
Whether you're curious about the power of your own brain or fascinated by the world of scientific exploration, this episode of Neurotransmissions has something for you.
