Few words about the research project: You will join the project entitled “Influence of environmental factors related to maternal infection during pregnancy on the development of neuropsychiatric disorders in offspring with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex in the zebrafish model” carried out as the SONATA BIS grant (UMO-2023/50/E/NZ3/00252) of the National Science Centre, Poland.
The project aims to answer how various environmental insults related to infection during pregnancy interact with changes caused by genetic mutation and how these interactions shape connectivity development and brain function to regulate specific behaviours related to neuropsychiatric disorders. With the use of an integrative, multi-level, and unbiased approach, we aim to unravel environmental influence on early brain development with the primary focus on autism spectrum disorder (ASD), anxiety, and related learning disabilities using zebrafish semi- and high-throughput behavioural tests, next-generation sequencing methods, cutting-edge microscopy, and computer vision techniques.
