In 1932 Sir Charles Scott Sherrington and Prof. Edgar Douglas Adrian received the Nobel Prize Award in Physiology or Medicine for their groundbreaking work on the function of neurons. Their discoveries on the all-or-nothing law of neural response and excitatory and inhibitory signal integration properties formed the foundations of contemporary neuroscience research.
Year 2022 marks the 90th Anniversary of one of the most notable Nobel Prize Awards in the field of Neuroscience, presenting an opportunity to reflect on the progress made in our understanding of the basic mechanisms of neuron functioning and neural information processing. Frontiers in Neuroscience portfolio is proud to introduce the “90th Anniversary of the Sherrington and Adrian Nobel Prize” Research Topic series that will highlight state-of-the-art neuroscience research building on the foundational discoveries of Sir Charles Scott Sherrington and Prof. Edgar Douglas Adrian. The aim of this series is to spotlight current advances in the basic mechanisms of neuron function, action potential, signal integration, and transmission across the entire central nervous system to further our understanding of how the biological mechanisms and physiological properties on different organizational levels contribute to the global information processing.
This special edition Research Topic aims to highlight cutting-edge research progressing our understanding of molecular pathways regulating synaptic transmission and the post synaptic densities. This collection intends to serve as a basis to spotlight current advances in the field but also to summarize the state of the field and define future enquiries. This collection will include, but not be limited to the following topics:
1. Synaptic Plasticity and global developmental delay/Intellectual disability/cognition/memory.
2. Cholinergic synaptic transmission and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
3. Calcium Dynamics and Synaptic Plasticity and cognition/memory/intellectual disability
4. Dopamine transmission and ADHD/ASD.
5. Synaptic plasticity and glia cells and Epilepsy/Intellectual disability/ADHD.
6. AMPA receptor and cognition and memory/intellectual disability/epilepsy.
7. NMDAR receptor and cognition and memory/intellectual disability/epilepsy.
8. Synaptic transmission and mitochondrial function/dysfunction.
9. Synaptic plasticity and sleep and epilepsy and intellectual disability.
10. HCN channels and synaptic plasticity and Epilepsy/Intellectual disability.
11. Potassium channels and synaptic plasticity and intellectual disability/Epilepsy.
