Scientifica Meets - Sam Booker, University of Edinburgh

Scientifica recently had the pleasure of speaking with Dr Sam Booker from the University of Edinburgh, who discusses his lab, and his research into the fundamental mechanisms leading to plasticity of neurons in the developing brain, and how these are influenced by inhibitory signalling. For this they employ a combination of electrophysiology and neuroanatomy in cell and slice cultures, and acute brain slices from rodents and humans.
