Description: NIH Neuroscience Series Seminar

The research in Dr. Matthews’ laboratory is concerned with how neurons communicate. One focus of their work is the synaptic vesicle cycle, the process of exocytosis and endocytosis that mediates chemical neurotransmission. To study the regulation of synaptic exocytosis and endocytosis, they use electrophysiological assays, such as capacitance measurements, together with a variety of imaging techniques, including calcium imaging, confocal microscopy, evanescent field microscopy, and electron microscopy.
