Ifeoma Azinge's research investigates the role of the neuropeptide galanin in the medial septum and its impact on attention, impulsivity, and memory deficits.
The medial septum, implicated in symptoms of mental health disorders, contains GPCRs activated by neuropeptides, particularly highlighting the significance of galanin in behavior modulation.
Through behavioral tasks with rats, I aim to explore how activating or inactivating galanin receptors in the medial septum affects behavior linked to attention and memory.
The study focuses on understanding how galanin influences brain regions and eventually alters activities associated with cognitive functions such as attention and memory.
