Episode Synopsis

Join us as we explore the fascinating world of neurobiology! In this episode, we talk with Dr. Tuan Bui, a Professor and the Chair of Biology at the University of Ottawa. Dr. Bui is a leading neurobiologist whose research delves into the intricate mechanisms by which the nervous system controls movement. Through innovative work with zebrafish and mouse models, Dr. Bui’s lab investigates the spinal cord and related neural circuits, uncovering fundamental principles of motor control. These cutting-edge studies not only advance our understanding of the nervous system but also hold significant promise for developing therapies and rehabilitation strategies for spinal cord injuries.To learn more about Dr. Bui's work please visit the University of Ottawa's Faculty of Science page: https://www.uottawa.ca/faculty-science/professors/tuan-bui
