Multiple Facets of GABA in Brain Development
GABA signals modulate all the essential steps of brain
maturation including proliferation, neuronal phenotype, migration, neuronal
growth, synapse formation and early network patterns. Alterations of GABA signals
are involved in many brain disorders at both early and late developmental
stages. Clearly understanding how GABA signals control brain development will
heavily impact developmental neurobiology. The aims of this winter school are to
educate and inspire young investigators by presenting all the multiple facets
of GABA signals, from cell to network and to malformations. The invited
speakers are experts in an extremely wide range of domains and techniques that
span from molecular biology, fundamental electrophysiology to imaging brain
networks and animal models of malformations.
