The Brain’s Dark Matter: Exploring the Extracellular Matrix | Prof. Jessica Kwok
In our 25th episode, we're highlighting a fascinating and often overlooked area of neuroscience: the extracellular matrix of the brain. We are delighted to host Dr. Jessica Kwok, Associate Professor of Neuroscience at the University of Leeds, whose research is reshaping our understanding of memory, brain plasticity, and post-injury recovery. In this episode, you will learn: -What perineuronal nets (PNNs) are and their influence on brain function. -The surprising role of the ...
