neuroanatomy

1) Quantitative analysis of immunocytochemically identified components in the central nervous system using the stereological technique.
2) Multidisciplinary analysis of projection pathway of central nervous system by using anatomical and electrophysiological techniques to know the principle of neuron network system of the brain.
3) Quantitative and statistical analysis of brain plasticity using model animals for psychiatric disorders.
4) Ultrastructural analysis of patterns of expression of newly identified molecules in the central nervous system.
5) Education of undergraduate students via practicals of systematic anatomy, brain anatomy and lecture.
