    Granule cells – how do neurons “speak”?

    Dr. Jakob Wolfart junior professor at the Neurocentre at the Freiburg University Medical Centre and his team are investigating how the behaviour of neurons changes upon the onset of electrical chaos in the hippocampus. Changes in the flow of electrical charge at the cell membranes provide information about disease mechanisms as well as details about the normal functions of neurons and hence the syntax of the electrochemical language which neurons…

    Jens Kremkow – does the neural network work like a gate?

    Billions of nerve cells in our brain communicate with each other and lead to phenomena such as thought feeling and memory would be better. What fundamental information-processing principles govern the chaos of electrical impulses? Dr. Jens Kremkow from the Bernstein Center in Freiburg creates computer models of neural processes. Kremkow and his team carried out many complex simulations from which they were able to develop simple models of the…

    The nervous system as a three-dimensional map

    A Freiburg research team has created the first complete map of special connections of nerve cells in zebrafish. The data identify all projection possibilities (“projectome”) of nerve cells in a particular class of messengers in the nervous system that is of great importance for medicine. The data were published in Nature Communications on 25th January.

    A Possible Cause of Parkinson’s Disease Discovered

    When a person has Parkinsons disease the dopamine-producing nerve cells in the brain die which leads to the characteristic symptoms of this neurological disorder. Scientists of the German Cancer Research Center Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum DKFZ have discovered that this group of nerve cells of patients with Parkinsons contains defective nucleoli.

    Christoph Kleineidam – communication without words

    Neuroethologist Dr. Christoph Kleineidam from the University of Konstanz focuses mainly on ants and their highly sensitive sensory system that allows them to communicate with each other by way of pheromones. He believes that these sensory mechanisms can be technologically implemented in the fields of thermosensor and chemosensor technology in the not-too-distant future.

    New metabolic model provides insights into Alzheimer’s disease

    The combination of a newly developed bioinformatic model and experimental data provides new insights into the causes of Alzheimers disease. Researchers found that whilst the activity of a particular enzyme is reduced specific nerve cells are able to counteract this deficiency by rerouting the metabolic fluxes.

    Viscofan BioEngineering is the first company to market cell culture inserts for the cultivation of cells and tissues that are entirely made from collagen. In contrast to traditional PTFE membranes, Viscofan´s cell culture inserts do not need to be coated with collagen prior to use. The new collagen inserts are extremely suitable for the cultivation of adherent primary cells such as cardiomyocytes, neurons, fibroblasts, cell lines, stem cells as…

    Highly charged nerve cells: improved neuronal communication and improved acquisition of motor skills

    Back in 2009 two researchers from the Department of Neurology at the Freiburg University Medical Centre were able to show during their research stay in the USA that the repeated stimulation of the brain with weak direct current increases the brains ability to acquire new complex motor skills. The researchers have now investigated the underlying mechanisms and published the results in the current issue of the renowned scientific journal Neuron.

    Cancer stem cells arise from tissue stem cells

    The Tlx transcription factor induces the transformation of neural stem cells into new nerve cells in the adult brain. Scientists at the German Cancer Research Centre in Heidelberg showed that the overproduction of Tlx and the silencing of the p53 tumour suppressor gene in mice stimulates the development of malignant brain tumours glioblastomas from brain stem cells.

  • Press release - 22/04/2010 The virally expressed Cre recombinase can highly specifically modify the genome of transgenic mice. In the present case, a glutamate receptor was removed from the majority of granule cells, which resulted in the enhanced inhibition of the specific olfactory bulb cells and led to the accelerated discrimination of odours.<br />

    How nerve cells discriminate olfactory clues

    Whether different odours can be quickly discriminated depends on whether certain synapses in the brain are able to inhibit neuronal information processing. Scientists led by Professor Dr. Thomas Kuner at the Institute of Anatomy and Cell Biology at the Heidelberg Medical Faculty and Dr. Andreas Schäfer at the Max Planck Institute of Medical Research have shown that mice lacking a certain receptor in the olfactory bulb are able to discriminate…

    Borna disease virus and cell death in the brain

    A research group led by Prof. Dr. Bernd Heimrich at the University of Freiburg is investigating how the Borna disease virus can alter characteristic neuronal circuits and destroy the hippocampal nerve cells. The scientists have developed an extremely practical petri dish test system. Their results show which cell types sustain the most damage following infection and also give indications as to how apoptosis cell death can be prevented.

    The neuroanatomist Prof. Dr. Jochen Staiger from the University of Freiburg is investigating the so-called barrels in the somatosensory cortex of rodents which represent a body map with which the tactile environment can be perceived. Prof. Staiger is looking for the basic circuit in this highly ordered and structured part of the brain which enables the connection between perception and behaviour.

    Mobile microscopes illuminate the brain

    By building a tiny microscope small enough to be carried around on a rats head, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen, Germany, have found a way to study the complex activity of many brain cells simultaneously while animals are free to move around. With this new technology scientists can actually see how the brain cells operate while the animal is behaving naturally, giving rise to immense new insights into…

    The brain plans in advance – if it can

    Researchers led by Jörn Rickert at the Bernstein Centre for Computational Neuroscience and the University of Freiburg have now discovered that completely different neural activities in the motor cortex can lead to identical movements depending on how well the movement is planned in advance. The results were recently published in the Journal of Neuroscience and amongst other things are of importance for the development of brain-controlled…

    Electrified regulated protein transport

    Physiologists have for a long time regarded the communication between cells as a purely “external” process. However, research carried out by Dr. Nikolaj Klöcker and his team at the Freiburg University Medical Centre now shows that the cells do not exclusively regulate their electrical properties directly at the cell membrane. They also found a range of molecular switches in neurons and epithelial cells that are able to control the cells’…

    Cadherins – keeping cells together is not their only purpose

    If they are absent everything goes wrong. Right from the development of the embryo the cell adhesion molecules of the cadherin superfamily ensure that cells are bound together while they are developing and when they become adult organisms. Cadherins fix tissue in place and give it shape and identity. But this is far from being all that they do. Dr. Dirk Junghans and his team at the Freiburg University Medical Centre have carried out experiments…

Nevertheless, since the beginning of the 20th century Drosophila melanogaster has provided us with decisive insights into human genetics, development and neurobiology.
