Synapse Course
This Synapse Course equips biological science professionals with practical, hands-on skills to design LTP experiments, master hippocampal electrophysiology including fEPSP and patch clamp techniques, analyse synaptic plasticity data through normalisation, plotting, and statistics, troubleshoot slice recordings by detecting artefacts and fixing instability, and connect molecular synaptic changes to circuit function and memory models.

What will I learn?
The Synapse Course provides a focused, practical guide to hippocampal synaptic transmission and plasticity, covering membrane potentials, vesicle release, AMPA/NMDA receptor functions, and signalling cascades. Participants learn to design robust LTP experiments, select slice preparations, perform field and patch-clamp recordings, integrate pharmacology and imaging, rigorously analyse data, troubleshoot issues, and relate synaptic changes to circuit-level functions and memory models.
