The Procedural Pause: Ultrasound, Part 3: Foreign Body Removal
James R. Roberts, MD, & Martha Roberts, CEN, ACNP, look at ocular ultrasound in this video, sharing tips for assessing the eye and diagnosing retinal detachment, which in the past required a referral to an ophthalmologist and often delayed therapy.

Neural circuits controlling sleep
NIH Director's Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series
Yang Dan’s lab uses electrophysiology, imaging, optogenetic, and computational techniques to study functions of the mammalian brain. They have studied microcircuits underlying visual cortical computation and mechanisms for cortical plasticity at multiple levels, from synapse to perception. Recent work has revealed the mechanisms by which brainstem, hypothalamus, and basal forebrain circuits exert powerful control of sleep-wake brain states.For more information go to https://oir.nih.gov/wals

2015 Maurice B. Burg Lecture: Opening Doors Worldwide Through Medical Science
The major lesson I learned from a four-decade career in medical science is that we have a unique opportunity to make the world a better place. As a Johns Hopkins faculty member, our research group discovered the aquaporin water channels that facilitate the movement of water across cell membranes. This led to multiple international collaborations including studies with renal physiologists in Denmark, neuroscientists in Norway, structural biologists in Switzerland and Japan, and field workers in Africa. While the practical value of these discoveries is just emerging, valuable new preventive strategies and treatments for mu...

Looking Inside the Adaptive Brain of the Blind
2015-2016 BSSR Lecture Series
Within the setting of visual deprivation, the brain undergoes dramatic reorganization in both its structure and function. Furthermore, these neuroplastic changes are intimately related to compensatory sensory and perceptual behaviors observed in individuals who are blind. We will present how modern neuroimaging has helped reveal the relationship between the brain and behavior as it relates to blindness. We will also highlight differences between individuals who are visually impaired due to ocular causes as compared to those who have developmental damage to the visual cortex.

Aquaporin water channels - from transfusion medicine to malaria
NIH Director’s Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series
Biochemical analysis of the Rhesus blood group antigen led to the serendipitous discovery of AQP1, the first molecular water channel. Found throughout nature, aquaporin water channels confer high water permeability to cell membranes. AQP1 has been characterized biophysically, and the atomic structure of AQP1 is known. Identification of the Colton blood group antigen on the extracellular domain of AQP1 allowed identification of rare individuals who are AQP1-null and manifest a subclinical form of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Thirteen homologous proteins exist in humans...

Perambulations through Global Health with an Emphasis on Vision
“Global Health" is the new buzz phrase for traditional public health writ large. It encompasses everything from acute infectious diseases to chronic maladies, all of which can become border-crossing epidemics of microbial or behavioral origin. Dr. Alfred Sommer, Dean Emeritus of the Bloomberg School of Public Health, and University Distinguished Service Professor of Epidemiology, Ophthalmology and International Health at Johns Hopkins University, has spent a lifetime crossing national boundaries and medical disciplines. He will discuss some of his more memorable interactions, and their present day relevance, ranging from...

Organization and Control of Hippocampal Chronocircuits
Neuroscience Seminar Series
Dr. Soltesz’s lab is interested in how brain cells communicate with each other and how the communication changes after fever-induced seizures in early childhood and after head injury. Their general goal is to understand how neuronal networks function and dysfunction, in order to discover new therapies to prevent epilepsy.
Postdoctoral fellows and graduate students in the lab employ a variety of cutting-edge experimental and computational modeling techniques to understand normal and epilepsy-related plasticity in neuronal networks. The techniques include optogenetics, paired patch clamp reco...
