BOLD Science Conference

Welcome to the BOLD Science Conference!

The in person component of the event will take place at Concordia University’s Loyola Campus, in RF 100.0, from 9:00 AM - 4:00PM with selected speakers Dr. Uri Shalev and Dr. Natalie Phillips. During the day,undergraduate students will be presenting their honors/specialization thesis/research projects conducted in various scientific disciplines (e.g. Biology, Biochemistry, Physics, Exercise Science, Psychology, Mathematics).

Agenda

🕑: 09:15 AM - 10:15 AM
Presentation by Dr Uri Shalev

Info: Relapse to substance use: what can we learn from animal models about the relevant brain mechanisms?

Relapse to drug use is a major challenge in the treatment of substance use disorders (addiction). Animal models are considered an effective way to gain a better understanding of the brain mechanisms that underlie substance use disorders and relapse. In my talk, I am planning to present a few of the most popular animal models for relapse, mention some problems with those models, and briefly describe a few intersting findings from research in my laboratory.


🕑: 01:15 PM - 02:15 PM
Presentation by Dr Natalie Phillips

Info: Understanding potentially modifiable risk factors for dementia is essential to promoting brain health across the lifespan. Sensory loss (hearing, vision, olfaction) tends to increase over the lifespan and is very common in older adults. Hearing loss, vision loss, and olfactory loss are each strongly associated with cognitive decline and dementia and have important implications for the quality of life and functional capacity of older adults with or at risk for dementia. This talk will provide an overview of sensory loss in the older adult and will discuss potential reasons why sensory loss is associated with dementia, including common causes (e.g., vascular disease), brain compensation, and changes in one's social engagement.
