Nerve cell in action! Using fluorescence imaging, a nerve cell is visualised in the amygdala, a part of the brain involved in emotions and learning.
The brain is the last unconquered frontier of science. Neuroscientists at the ANU are using many different approaches to meet this challenge. These include investigation at the molecular, cellular, computational and systems levels. The end result will be a greater understanding of mental disorders, vision, hearing, learning and memory, high blood pressure, cognitive functions and the design of new medical treatments and artificial navigation systems.
