Why are there currently still no cures even for intensively studied neurodevelopmental
and movement disorders, such as autism spectrum disorders?
Starting from this
basic question you are going to set a frame in this interfaculty minor
“Translational Neuroscience” and draw upon the following topics: What is nowadays
known about the neurobiological mechanisms underlying these disorders – and
what is not known? What state of the art scientific tools do we currently have
to investigate these disorders? Where is preclinical and clinical research now
and are there new treatments and therapies in sight? The problems clinicians
and researchers nowadays face with neurodevelopmental and movement disorders
range from diagnostics, neurobiology, genetics and choosing suitable research methodologies
to therapy.
Aim of this course is to enable you to apply the
current knowledge in neurobiology to propose translational research strategies
that will help to either better understand the etiology of neurological
disorders or their potential treatments. For this, during the minor, you will
have the opportunity to focus either more on the translational/clinical aspects
of neuroscience or on the neurobiological/translational ones.
