Dr. Deepak Nair is currently the Assistant Professor in Centre for Neuroscience at Indian Institute of Science, Banglore. His research areas include: Role of Dynamic Nanoscale Molecular Organization in the Signal processing at the Synapse. Dr. Deepak Nair has been awarded the IYBA (Innovative Young Biotechnologist Award) 2013″ by Department of Biotechnology, Ministry of Science and Technology, New Delhi.
Synapses, basic functional units of brain, are involved in the modulation of information flow between neurons. How synapses moderate this flow of information is key to functioning of the brain. Synapses control the transmission of information by differential recruitment, recycling and positioning of molecular components of the synapses. Our approach is to study the organization and dynamics of key synaptic molecules using a variety of interdisciplinary approaches. We aim to develop cutting edge microscopy and optogenetic tools to observe synapses at the nanoscale and real-time.
