Event description:
Dr. Katherine Roche is a Senior Investigator in the NINDS IRP. Over the last two decades, Dr. Roche has studied the molecular mechanisms that underlie synaptic plasticity at excitatory synapses. She has studied glutamate receptors and other postsynaptic proteins to better understand the mechanisms that dictate their expression at synapses. More recently, her research program has pivoted to use human genetics to guide her lab’s studies on the synaptic dysfunction underlying neurodevelopmental disorders.
