The chemical senses have been spotlighted since Drs. Axel and Buck were awarded the Noble Prize in 2004 due to their pioneer works identifying odorant receptors and olfactory processes. The olfactory system responsible for the chemical senses detects chemicals from the environment using odorant receptors in the olfactory epithelium, encodes the signals in the olfactory bulb, and then processes the encoded signals in the brain. Numbers of interdisciplinary studies have recently been developed to answer intriguing questions regarding interactions between chemicals and their odorant receptors, circuits for the brain`s signal processing, and the cognitive changes by olfactory stimulation. In this symposium, four experts in the field of olfaction will discuss the recent research trends of the olfactory system and present future research directions.

Peripheral neuropathy is caused by the degeneration of peripheral axon and myelinating Schwann cells. Compared to neurodegeneration in the central nervous system, the pathological features and treatment efforts have received less attention. This symposium, held jointly by the Peripheral Neuropathy Research Center (PNRC) in Dong-A university, aims to bring together recent advances in our understanding of key pathologic features of the disease and efforts to facilitate the translation of novel therapies into the clinic.

To understand human nervous system development, many model systems have been established. However, it has now become clear that some aspects of human development are uniquely human and cannot be modeled using other animals. Over the past decade, approaches to modeling nervous system development based on human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have made rapid progress. Depending on questions that researchers have, hPSCs can be differentiated into specific neural cells or brain structures by culturing them in either two- or three-dimensional culture systems. In this session, speakers will introduce the cutting edge techniques of hPSC-based research in nervous system development and the beauty of the hPSC-based models of human neurodevelopmental diseases.

Growing evidence has supported an idea that glial cells are important players for regulating brain functions. Astrocyte, which is the major population of glial cells, regulates neural circuits in normal or diseased brains, by releasing substances and cytokines, modifying brain structures, or enhancing cell survivals and differentiation.

The cerebellum is well known for its roles in motor coordination and motor-based learning. However, it is also widely involved in a diverse range of non-motor functions such as reward, social, emotion and sensor perceptions. Accordingly, cerebellar dysfunctions are associated with many brain disorders from autism spectrum disorders to. In this symposium, we will discuss new perspectives on the cerebellar functions, mainly focused but not limited to the non-motor cognitive functions based on new findings from the speakers’ laboratories.

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) represent a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by social deficits and repetitive behaviors. In addition, ASD accompanies various neurodevelopmental dysfunctions, including intellectual disability, anxiety, ADHD-like hyperactivity, epilepsy, and sensory hypersensitivity. However, the mechanisms underlying ASD such as synaptic, neuronal, and circuit mechanisms are not well understood. The speakers in this session will discuss various aspects of ASD mechanisms ranging from neural correlates of social interaction and synaptic, neuronal, and circuit dysfunctions in ASD.

The field of brain science is dramatically advanced during past decade with global investment by government-driven programs such as the BRAIN Initiative. Alongside this achievement, enhanced computing power and accumulated biological data allow the artificial intelligence (AI) to expedites novel findings in neuroscience. However, compared to general intelligence, AI still has limitation to solve arbitrary problems with high energy efficiency. To overcome this hurdle, researchers implant various neural network models to the AI. In this symposium, we will discuss how strengthened relationship between AI and neural circuit paves the way to study neurobiology, computational neuroscience, and neuroimaging.

The Nobel Prize in Physiology/Medicine 2021 was awarded jointly to David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian "for their discoveries of receptors for temperature and touch.” David Julius discovered TRPV1 as an ion channel activated by heat and capsaicin in sensory neurons and TRPV1 is also critically involved in pathological pain. Ardem Patapoutian discovered Piezo2 as a mechanosensitive ion channel for touch, and Piezo2 can be a potential molecular target for mechanical allodynia, pain evoked by non-painful mechanical stimuli. The symposium is organized to celebrate this year’s Nobel prize in Physiology/Medicine, and speakers will present their recent works in pain field.

Decision making relies on complex cognitive processes and its underlying neural mechanisms are largely unknown. In the brain, one of the major players in decision making is the prefrontal cortex and its associated neural networks. Various subregions of the prefrontal cortex exhibit complex and dynamic functional connectivities with other brain areas to make effective decision-making possible in various contexts. Speakers of the current symposium will present their latest experimental results about this topic to share their insights on the prefrontal cortical mechanisms of decision making and how animals guide their future behavior based on their past experience.

Invertebrates models were seminal to our current understanding of how the brain assemble behaviors. The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans have unparalleled genetic tools for neural circuit analysis. In 2018, a complete electron microscopy volume of the adult fly brain comprising 100,000 neurons was released. C. elegans is the first metazoan with synapse-level neural maps. Now, the high-resolution connectome combined with advanced genetic and optogenetic tools renders these invertebrates ideal for discovering neural circuits and understanding their circuit logics. This symposium demonstrates how one can address fundamental questions of behavioral neuroscience with advances in invertebrate models.

Schizophrenia is a major psychiatric disorder with marked functional decline and chronic course along with psychotic symptoms such as auditory hallucinations and delusions. Schizophrenia is regarded as a disorder of brain connectivity caused by abnormalities in neuronal migration, synaptogenesis, synaptic pruning, and myelinization. Thus, it is important to broaden our knowledge about brain connectivity of schizophrenia, from cellular to network level, in understanding schizophrenia pathophysiology and developing better treatment for patients. In this symposium, the speakers would cover the cellular to network-level connectivity of schizophrenia brain: cellular mechanism, animal model, electrophysiological connectivity, and functional connectivity.
