Neurochemistry Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab working to elucidate the pathology of developmental disorders and to explore new treatments.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the mechanisms of developmental disorders to pursue new treatments.
The Neurochemistry Lab is a department based at the Institute for Developmental Research, Aichi Developmental Disability Center, and conducts research aimed at elucidating the pathology of developmental disorders and exploring new treatments.
The institute consists of research departments for genetic medicine, cell pathology, disability models, molecular pathology, and neural information, and any of these departments can host graduate students of the Neurochemistry Lab.
Using model animals and model cells for autism spectrum disorder and for various congenital and acquired intellectual disabilities, the lab investigates the mechanisms of these conditions experimentally.
Students can also take on research close to clinical practice, such as identifying the causative genes of patients with intellectual disability of unknown cause who visit the Central Hospital in the same center, and research aimed at better ryoiku (developmental therapy and educational support) for people with autism spectrum disorder.
Key terms
- Model animal
- An animal in which a condition related to a disease is reproduced in order to study the mechanisms of that disease
- Causative gene
- A gene that causes a particular disease or symptom
- Ryoiku (developmental therapy and educational support)
- Medical care and educational support that promote the development of children with disabilities
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability with the aim of elucidating the pathology of developmental disorders and exploring new treatments. In addition to experimental research using model animals and model cells, it also carries out clinical research, such as identifying the causative genes of patients who visit the Central Hospital in the same center.
