Sabatini和Svoboda师徒同时获奖，真是可喜可贺。


2002-2003

Liqun Luo, Ph.D., Stanford University
Single Neuron Labeling and Genetic Manipulation in Mice
Luo is working on a genetic method to manipulate and trace single neurons in
mice to learn how neural networks are assembled during development and late
r modified by experience.

A. David Redish, Ph.D.; Babak Ziaie, Ph.D.; and Arthur G. Erdman, Ph.D., Uni
versity of Minnesota
Wireless Recording of Neural Ensembles in Awake, Behaving Rats
The collaborators-a neuroscientist, an electrical engineer, and a mechanical
engineer-are developing a wireless method of recording neuronal spike train
s from awake, behaving rats to enhance understanding of learning and behavio
r.

Bernardo Sabatini, M.D., Ph.D., Harvard Medical School
Optical Tools for the Analysis of Protein Translation in Extrasomatic Neuron
al Compartments
To explore how neurons establish communication channels and how the brain st
ores and recalls information, Sabatini is developing molecules that emit lig
ht when neurons make proteins, and a microscope to view the process deep wit
hin the living brain.

Karel Svoboda, Ph.D., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
Regulation of Synaptic Transmission in vivo with High Spatial and Temporal S
pecificity
Svoboda is developing molecular tools to further the understanding of how sy
napses organize brain circuitry.
