DESCRIPTION:The Feindel Brain and Mind Seminar Series will advance the visi
 on of Dr. William Feindel (1918–2014)\, Former Director of the Neuro (1972
 –1984)\, to constantly bridge the clinical and research realms. The talks 
 will highlight the latest advances and discoveries in neuropsychology\, co
 gnitive neuroscience\, and neuroimaging.\n\nSpeakers will include scientis
 ts from across The Neuro\, as well as colleagues and collaborators locally
  and from around the world. The series is intended to provide a virtual fo
 rum for scientists and trainees to continue to foster interdisciplinary ex
 changes on the mechanisms\, diagnosis and treatment of brain and cognitive
  disorders.\n\n\nTo attend in person\, register here\n\nTo watch via Vimeo

 act: Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is an essential non-invasive imagi
 ng technique widely used in disease diagnosis and drug discovery. SV2A (Sy
 naptic Vesicle Protein 2A) serves as a key biomarker for imaging synaptic 
 density in the brain\, making it an important target in neurological resea
 rch. Rho-associated protein kinase 2 (ROCK2)\, a member of the AGC family 
 of serine/threonine kinases\, plays a critical role in various cellular fu
 nctions. In this presentation\, Dr. Zheng will share his work on the devel
 opment of innovative PET imaging tracers for both SV2A and ROCK2\, advanci
 ng our ability to visualize and study the brain in the context of neurolog
 ical diseases and therapies.\n
