DESCRIPTION:The Neuro's Dorothy J. Killam Lecture was established in 2004 t
 o recognize women of influence in business\, science\, politics or the hum
 anities. Eve Marder\, Victor and Gwendolyn Beinfield Professor of Biology 
 at Brandeis University\, will deliver the 2026 Dorothy J. Killam lecture. 
 A cocktail reception will follow for in-person registered attendees.\n\n\n
 Registration coming soon.\n\n\nNeuromodulation\, Acclimation and the Effec
 ts of the Environment on Rhythmic Motor Systems\n\nLecture Abstract: A fun
 damental problem in neuroscience is understanding how the properties of in
 dividual neurons and synapses contribute to neuronal circuit dynamics and 
 behavior. Computational and experimental studies demonstrate that the same
  physiological output can arise from multiple\, degenerate solutions\, and
  individual animals with similar behavior can have different sets of under
 lying circuit parameters. We study the resilience of individual animals to
  perturbations such as temperature and high potassium concentrations. Our 
 present work is designed to understand differential resilience in natural\
 , wild - caught animals in response to environmental challenges\, and show
 s long - lasting influences of the animals’ temperature history.\n\nEve Ma

  in Nassim\, MIT Press\, 2018 Lessons from the Lobster\, Eve Marder’s Work
  in Neuroscience. Marder was instrumental in demonstrating that neuronal c
 ircuits are not “hard-wired” but can be reconfigured by neuromodulatory ne
 urons and substances\, and in developing the dynamic clamp and models of i
 ntrinsic homeostasis. Marder now studies how similar network performance c
 an arise from different sets of underlying network parameters\, with its r
 elevance for differential resilience in the population to challenges such 
 as environmental temperature.\n\n \n
