Synapse Course
Synapse Course equips biological science professionals with practical skills to design LTP experiments, handle hippocampal electrophysiology, analyse synaptic plasticity data, troubleshoot recordings, and relate molecular synaptic changes to circuit functions and memory models. This hands-on training covers membrane potentials, vesicle release, AMPA/NMDA receptors, signalling cascades, slice preparations, field and patch-clamp recordings, pharmacology, imaging, data analysis, and linking synapses to broader brain functions.

What will I learn?
Synapse Course offers a practical guide to hippocampal synaptic transmission and plasticity, covering membrane potentials, vesicle release, AMPA/NMDA receptor functions, and signalling cascades. Learners will master designing LTP experiments, selecting slice preparations, performing field and patch-clamp recordings, integrating pharmacology and imaging, conducting rigorous data analysis, troubleshooting issues, and relating synaptic changes to circuit functions and memory models.
