The Neuroscience Laboratory aims to provide students with a basic understanding of some of the experimental paradigms and study methods commonly used in the Neuroscience field.
The first module aims at delivering to the student the knowledge of neuromorphological approach to the study of different in vivo and in vitro models of neurodevelopment and neurodegeneration. The methodological basis for the preparation of neuroanatomical and neuronal culture samples for light, confocal and electron microscopy will be provided. The student will acquire competence in the observation and quantitative evaluation of samples treated by immunohistochemical and immunofluorescent techniques.
