SUMMARY:Rutgers Women’s Brain Health Initiative (RWBHI) Plenary Seminar (Virtual): Jennifer S. Stevens\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“Neuroendocrine contributors to traumatic stress: Understanding women’s risk”\nPlenary Seminar: Jennifer S. Stevens\, PhD\nCo-Director\, The Grady Trauma Project\nAssociate Professor\, Dept. of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences\nEmory University School of Medicine\nInvestigator\, Center for Visual and Neurocognitive Rehabilitation\nAtlanta VA Health Care System \nDate and Time: Tuesday\, September 29\, 2026\, 12:00 PM (EST) \nJoin Zoom Meeting: https://rutgers.zoom.us/j/94401127117?pwd=EEkh3qdxGpKIFzpefpYdstiLR3y8St.1\nMeeting ID: 944 0112 7117  | Passcode: 092926 \nDr. Stevens’ earlier work from the Grady Trauma Project identified a polymorphism in the PACAP receptor gene that contributes to risk for PTSD among women but not men. Further developments in this line of research provide one of the best-studied biological explanations for the gender disparity in PTSD diagnosis. The lab recently observed that childhood trauma predicts decreased behavioral-inhibition-related mPFC and hippocampal function in women with PTSD but does not impact function in resilient women who experienced trauma but do not have PTSD. The newest studies in the lab address 1) associations between menstrual cycle hormones and brain-based signatures of stress vulnerability in young women\, 2) longitudinal changes in neural structure and function over perimenopause\, and 3) maternal responses to infant cues in the early postpartum window. Additional seminar details will be available soon. Learn more \nLearn more about the Rutgers Women’s Brain Health Initiative \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.
