Dr. Justin Botterill PhD, Neuroscience Cluster Executive Member Assistant Professor Anatomy, Physiology, and Pharmacology
The Botterill laboratory studies cells and circuits that contribute to health and disease. Our basic science pillar is focused on investigating circuits that regulate learning, novelty, and affective behvaiours. Our health sciences pillar is focused on studying the cellular and circuit mechanisms that contribute to temporal lobe epilepsy to identify novel therapeutic targets. To address these questions, we use transgenic mice, viral vectors for cell-type specific tracing and/or manipulations, electrophysiological recordings, rodent behavioural testing, biochemistry, and microscopy.
