I recently featured Dr. Evanna Gleason. As part of this, we highlighted her lab’s epertise in culturing our E18 Primary Rat Hippocampal Neurons.
I recently received impressive data and protocols from Emily Mcmains, a lab member.
Please note the excellent image of the cells 1 week after culturing and images taken after 4 days.

Coming soon…Now for something completely different…Synaptic Transmission Research.
I am pleased to be featuring Dr. Evanna Gleason. I selected her because She and her team’s research is a basic component of most areas Neuroscience Research including pain, neurodegeneration, vision, TBI, SCI, drug addiction, neuro-disorders and more…This base component is how neurons communicate with other cells at synapses.
She focuses on synaptic transmission [...]
