SUMMARY:Socratic Scrubs Grand Rounds: Jennifer Mulle\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“How do you study a complex phenotype like schizophrenia? A rare variant perspective”\nJoin us by Zoom for our next Socratic Scrub Grand Rounds\, featuring Jennifer Mulle Ph.D.\, of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. \nSocratic Scrub Grand Rounds is a series devoted to research judgment: the reasoning behind discovery rather than its finished results. Drawing on François Jacob’s distinction between day science and Night Science Institute\, we invite distinguished investigators to share not only what they found\, but how they navigated the uncertainty\, false starts\, negative results and pivots along the way that are not apparent in the publications. The series is open broadly to the public. \nDate and Time: Friday\, October 30\, 2026\, 10:00–11:00 AM \nRegistration: https://rutgers.zoom.us/meeting/register/RqqTQvm-StWWMeCstAkLjw#/registration

SUMMARY:Rutgers Network Neuroscience Interest Group: Andrea Luppi\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“Competitive interactions shape brain dynamics and computation across species”\nSpeaker: Andrea Luppi\, PhD\nDepartment of Psychiatry\, University of Oxford\, UK\nDivision of Information\, Engineering\, University of Cambridge \nDate and Time: Friday\, October 30th at 1:00 PM \nZoom: https://rutgers.zoom.us/my/lp756?pwd=Y3Q1NTNGTFJibHpYcUUwYUNaaFg5UT09 \nIn-person: SRB seminar room \nAbstract: Adaptive cognition relies on cooperation across anatomically distributed brain circuits. However\, specialised neural systems are also in constant competition for limited processing resources. How does the brain’s network architecture enable it to balance these cooperative and competitive tendencies? Here we use computational whole-brain modelling to integrate multimodal structural and functional data\, and examine the dynamical and computational relevance of cooperative and competitive interactions in the mammalian connectome. Across human\, macaque\, and mouse we show that the architecture of the models that most faithfully reproduce brain activity\, consistently combines modular cooperative interactions with diffuse\, long-range competitive interactions. The model with competitive interactions consistently outperforms the cooperative-only model\, with excellent fit to both spatial and dynamical properties of the living brain\, which were not explicitly optimised but rather emerge spontaneously. Competitive interactions in the effective connectivity produce greater levels of synergistic information and local-global hierarchy\, and lead to superior computational capacity when used for neuromorphic computing. Altogether\, this work provides a mechanistic link between network architecture\, dynamical properties\, and computation in the mammalian brain. \nThe Rutgers network neuroscience interest group brings together researchers interested in understanding the organization of brain structure and function through the lens of network science. We view this field broadly and encourage participation from researchers working with both preclinical and human data and at different scales of analysis\, including both mesoscale (involving populations of neurons) and macroscale (involving different brain regions). \nThe interest group is sponsored by Center for Advanced Human Brain Imaging Research (CAHBIR) and the Cognitive And Sensory Neuroscience Focus Area Working Group of the BHI. \nIf you have questions about the interest group\, please email Dr. Linden Parkes (linden.parkes@rutgers.edu) or Dr. David Zald (david.zald@rutgers.edu)

SUMMARY:Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementia Translational Work-in-Progress (ADRD-TWIP): Zheng Shi\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“Deciphering Determinants of Condensate Liquid-to-Solid Transitions in Neurodegeneration”\nSpeaker: Zheng Shi\, PhD\nAssociate Professor\, Department of Chemistry and Chemical\, Biology\, Rutgers-New Brunswick \nDate and Time: Wednesday\, November 4\, 2026\, 12-1 PM \nZoom: https://rutgers.zoom.us/j/94769804345?pwd=IMqJIIvuDmRl997R6O4U4NKbt6UWfs.1\nMeeting code: 947 6980 4345\nPasscode: 454288 \nDr. Shi’s lab pursues two primary directions: 1) Quantitative understanding of the material properties of biomolecular condensates in cells that are relevant to neurodegeneration and cell signaling. 2) Investigating the subcellular behavior of mechanosensitive proteins. Dr. Shi is hoping to discuss specific aims and get feedback for a potential NINDS R01 application. Particularly\, he is trying to develop his research aims\, which currently focus on the material states of biomolecular condensates\, towards understanding the mechanisms of neurodegeneration.

SUMMARY:Department of Genetics and HGINJ Seminar: Dr. Antonina Roll-Mecak
DESCRIPTION:“Track Control: How Neurons Sculpt and Tune their Microtubule Cytoskeletons”\nDate and Time: November 9\, 2026\, 12:00 – 1:00 PM \nLocation: Life Sciences Building Auditorium (LSB) 151 (In person only) \nSpeaker: Dr. Antonina Roll-Mecak is the Senior Investigator and Chief of the Unit of Cell Biology and Biophysics at the National Institutes of Health\, U.S.A. She holds appointments in the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and the Biophysics Center of the National Heart\, Lung and Blood Institute. She received her undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering from The Cooper Union in New York City and her Ph.D. in Molecular Biophysics from the Rockefeller University where she worked on translation initiation. As a Damon Runyon postdoctoral fellow with Ron Vale at the University of California\, San Francisco she identified a new microtubule-severing enzyme and shed light on its mechanism of action. She joined the National Institutes of Health in 2010 as head of the Unit of Cell Biology and Biophysics. Her aim is to uncover the molecular basis for cytoskeleton function. Two main thrusts are to elucidate how cells encode\, through the tubulin code\, temporal and spatial information in their microtubules and regulate complex cytoarchitecture\, and to understand how enzymes catalyze microtubule polymer repair and rejuvenation.Dr. Roll-Mecak is the recipient of numerous awards\, including a Burroughs Wellcome Career Award\, a Searle Scholar Award\, the 2015 Margaret Dayhoff Award from the Biophysical Society and she was the 2017 Keith R. Porter fellow of the American Society of Cell Biology. In 2022 she received a NIH Director’s Challenge Innovation grant to generate a 4D Map of the tubulin code in the human neuron. In 2023 she was the recipient of the International Prize from the Biochemical Society and the NINDS award for mentoring junior faculty\, and in 2025 she was recognized with the Hans Neurath Award from the Protein Society. \nAbstract: Our every movement and thought is brought about by a complex network of neuronal connections precisely patterned through the dynamic organization of the microtubule cytoskeleton. Even subtle perturbation in microtubule regulation leads to cognitive and behavioral deficits. Neuronal processes contain bundles of microtubules that serve as tracks for the large volume of bidirectional cellular traffic necessary for efficient communication between distant neuronal compartments. Molecular motors functioning in this crowded environment encounter a dense mesh of microtubule associated proteins (MAPs) and intrinsically disordered tubulin tails that are modified with abundant and chemically diverse posttranslational modifications. My talk will take a journey across scales\, starting from the atomic structure and mechanism of tubulin code writers and erasers and their interplay to generate complex modification patterns\, to the visualization of microtubule architecture in situ in the human axon and the elucidation of molecular mechanisms of processive and selective cargo transport that arise at the intersection of these two regulatory layers of tubulin modifications and MAPs. By closely integrating imaging-driven in vivo physiological discovery with complex in vitro reconstitution and bridging these approaches through new chemical biology tools we developed\, my lab aims to achieve a multiscale understanding of cytoarchitecture development and adaptation. \nHosts: Drs. Maureen Barr and Karen Schindler\, Department of Genetics

SUMMARY:BHI Plenary Seminar: Alain Dagher\, MD\, PhD (McGill University)
DESCRIPTION:“Computational models of neurodegeneration provide insights into disease mechanisms”\nPlenary Speaker: Alain Dagher\, MD\nProfessor of Neurology and Neurosurgery\, Montreal Neurological Institute\, McGill University Health Centre \nDate and Time: Thursday\, November 19\, 2026\, 12:00 PM \nIn-Person Location: Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience Aidekman Building\, Room 103\, Rutgers University-Newark \nZoom link: https://rutgers.zoom.us/s/93519832456\nMeeting ID: 935 1983 2456  |  Passcode: 111926 \nBig data in neuroimaging has allowed us to uncover novel associations between brain measures and disease or behavioural phenotypes. However\, causal mechanisms are not always evident. Confounds\, reverse causation\, and selection bias all limit causal interpretations. Inspired by the new science of causal inference\, Dr. Dagher combines (1) very large MRI and postmortem datasets\, (2) genomics\, and (3) pathophysiology-informed computational models. He will discuss methods for determining causality from observational data and apply these principles to Parkinson’s disease (PD). He will show that PD is likely a propagating proteinopathy with disease epicentres and routes of propagation that determine clinical manifestations. Dr. Dagher will also show that genetically-determined brain features appear to confer vulnerability to the disease\, and speculate on what these tell us about the pathophysiology of PD. \nHosted by Dr. Travis Baker\, Associate Professor\, the Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience\, Rutgers University-Newark \nLearn more about the BHI Plenary Seminar Series

SUMMARY:BHI Plenary Seminar: David Ginty\, PhD (Harvard Medical School)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: David Ginty\, PhD\nEdward R. and Anne G. Lefler Professor of Neurobiology and Department Chair\nDepartment of Neurobiology\, Harvard Medical School\nInvestigator\, Howard Hughes Medical Institute \nDate and Time: March 5\, 2027 \nUsing a range of advanced tools\, the Ginty Lab is able to map how signals from the skin travel through the nervous system to encode touch perception. These circuits are what allow us to differentiate between textures\, temperatures\, and levels of pressure. Understanding how they develop and function provides insight into conditions such as chronic pain or autism\, in which touch feels painful or becomes overwhelming.

SUMMARY:BHI Plenary Seminar: Ryohei Yasuda\, PhD (Max Planck Florida Institute)
DESCRIPTION:Plenary Speaker: Ryohei Yasuda\, PhD\nScientific Director\, Max Planck Florida Institute \nDr. Yasuda’s research focuses on synaptic plasticity\, the ability of synapses to change their connection strength. This process is thought to underlie learning and memory. Cascades of biochemical reactions in dendritic spines\, tiny (~0.1 femtoliter) postsynaptic compartments emanating from dendritic surfaces\, trigger diverse forms of synaptic plasticity. The Yasuda lab aims to elucidate some of the operation principles of such signaling networks in dendritic spines using various optical techniques.
