Section 1 Research Direction

1)Biological function research of neurotrophic factors: From molecular and cellular to the overall level, biological function of neurotrophic factors is researched by molecular biology, cell biology ethology and etc., especially in the role of neural plasticity and nervous system diseases.

2 )The molecular mechanisms of learning and memory, and emotional disorders  transgenic animals are used as the main research object,  the molecular mechanisms of learning and memory, and emotional disorders are further studied by pharmacology, molecular biology and etc.

3 )Nerve-target tissue regulation mainly by using the method of joint cultivation in vitro, which is based on innervations of the target tissue cells in vitro, the neurons regulating mechanism for various target tissue is researched.
