International Symposium from January 6th to January 9th, 2023 at Keio University Mita CampusNeurovascular Unit Conference 2023It has been made。Supported by the Japan-US Brain Research Cooperative Program、On the Japanese side, Prof. Hitoshi Nakahara, Department of Neurology, Keio University、On the US side, Mr. Ken Arai from MGH was the organizer.。Yuzuzaki gave a keynote speech。

Small molecules administered to adults、As a new technology that visualizes how and where in the brain it is distributed like a snapshot、We have developed a method for immobilizing small molecules using paraformaldehyde, which is often used in tissue fixation.。by this method、metabotropic glutamate receptor mGlu1、AMPA-type glutamate receptor、Succeeded in visualizing the localization pattern of dopamine receptors after ligand administration。This research was supported by ERATO/CREST.、In collaboration with Nagoya University Seichu Lab、published in Chemit was done。

Science Digest、Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP)is a new publication of。In HFSP-supported research、The most notable scientific achievements are highlighted。Commemorative first issue was published、We are the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases(DZNE)of Alexander Dityatev Laboratory、I was informed that the research I conducted with Dr. Radu Aricescu, Oxford University (at that time) has been published.。

Goal 7 of the moonshot research and development project, "Understanding and application of intestinal bacterial action principle for extending healthy life expectancy" was adopted.、A kick-off meeting was held this time。Professor Kenya Honda is the project manager (PM))Is the、Yuzuzaki will participate as PM assistant and team leader of the "gut-brain linkage analysis team"。2022It is a research and development project for 6 years from FY 2019 (up to 9 years until FY 2030).。

Workshop 2022 was held to improve Presentation Skills。

Presentation skills for researchers、In addition to presenting research results and interacting with other researchers,、Returning research results to the general public、It is an essential technology when acquiring research funds。As an active brain science researcher,、Lectures and practical training were given by Professor George Augustine, who has a proven track record in teaching presentation methods.。
Graduate students belonging to Keio University Graduate School of Medicine, Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Graduate School of Science and Engineering、Young researchers participated。

This program is a WPI (Bio2Q)It is scheduled to be held as one of the joint graduate school programs (STaMP) in。
