Synapse Course
Synapse Course equips biological science professionals with practical skills to design LTP experiments, master hippocampal electrophysiology, analyse synaptic plasticity data, troubleshoot recordings, and link molecular changes to circuit function and memory models. This hands-on programme covers synaptic transmission, plasticity mechanisms, experimental design, data analysis, and integration with 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 receptors, and signalling cascades. Participants learn to design LTP experiments, select slice preparations, perform field and patch-clamp recordings, incorporate pharmacology and imaging, conduct rigorous data analysis, troubleshoot issues, and relate synaptic changes to circuit function and memory.
