Meadow voles are a seasonally prosocial species, displaying stark differences in social tolerance and bonding between summer and winter.
In this webinar, researcher Matt Davis, UC Berkeley, describes how he used single cell RNA-seq to probe how seasonal cues impact the composition and transcriptional phenotypes of diverse hippocampal cell types.
By watching, you'll learn:
- About the exciting work being done by Davis in the Berry and Saijo Labs at UC Berkeley.
- How seasonal differences in oligodendrocyte function might account for seasonal differences in hippocampal volume and result in different behaviors in meadow voles.
- More about the Parse Biosciences Evercode assay for performing single cell RNA-Seq.
