On Friday, January 17, neuroscience researchers from around the world, including a delegation from the world-renowned Pasteur Institute in Paris and the University of Bordeaux, will be at St. Joe’s West 5th Campus for St. Joe’s Clinical Neuroscience Symposium.
Tomorrow’s symposium will focus on cellular and immune system processes related to mood disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder. Researchers have been examining biological indicators – called biomarkers – to further understand the physiological processes of mood disorders.
Efforts to identify mood disorder biomarkers were bolstered by the opening of a state-of-the-art laboratory housed at St. Joe’s West 5th Campus, offering researchers the ability to test clinical populations for biomarkers and conduct further investigations.
