Funded Activity Summary

Central nervous system insulin and hippocampal-dependent cognitive function. This project plans to examine the effects of both infusion of insulin into the brain and the genetic knockdown of insulin transport and activity on cognitive function in mice. This project should increase our understanding of how circulating insulin enters the brain to influence the brain and resulting behaviours.
