Segi Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores how neurological and psychiatric disorders, centered on depression, develop and how they are treated.
AboutAbout the lab
Unraveling the onset and treatment of depression, from molecules to the whole organism
The Segi Lab aims to elucidate, from the molecular, cellular, and whole-organism perspectives, the processes by which neurological and psychiatric disorders, centered on depression, arise and by which treatment takes effect.
In antidepressant treatment models, the lab aims to clarify changes in hippocampal function and their contribution. In stress models, it aims to clarify changes in hippocampal circuits and function and their contribution to behavior.
In developmental disorder models, the lab aims to evaluate behavior and elucidate changes in brain function.
On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Segi Lab (Regulation of Biological Functions)."
Key terms
- Hippocampus
- A region of the brain. In this lab, it is the target for studying changes in function in antidepressant treatment and stress models
- Developmental disorder model
- A model for studying developmental disorders. This lab aims to evaluate behavior and elucidate changes in brain function with it
ResearchResearch themes
The goal of this lab is to clarify the processes by which neurological and psychiatric disorders, centered on depression, arise and by which treatment takes effect. From the molecular, cellular, and whole-organism perspectives, it aims to elucidate changes in hippocampal function and their relationship to behavior.
*Illustrative imageHippocampal changes in antidepressant treatment models
The lab aims to elucidate how hippocampal function changes in antidepressant treatment models. It also seeks to clarify what those changes contribute to.
