Neuroscience/Biology Seminar: Vaishali Bakshi, “Amygdala Neuroplasticity after Trauma-like Stress Exposure: a Preclinical Model for PTSD-like Deficits"
Mon, March 10, 2025
• 3:30pm
- 4:30pm (1h) • Olin 141
Traumatic stress can trigger or exacerbate multiple mental health conditions including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and schizophrenia. In this seminar, Dr. Bakshi will present work from her lab that identifies behavioral endpoints and neural pathways that are activated by trauma-like stress in a rodent model. She will discuss how these changes ultimately could contribute to the pathophysiology of disorders like PTSD.
