Tohoku Neuroscience Global COE
The Graduate School of Life Sciences and the Graduate School of Medicine at Tohoku University lately cooperated and established the "Basic & Translational Research Center for Global Brain Science" as a global center of excellence (COE) for life science fields.
We are seeking graduate students and researchers to play an active part here.

- Drs. D. Yamamoto, T. Nojima, and M. Koganezawa, at Graduate School of Life Sciences, Tohoku University and Dr. K.-i. Kimura at okkaido University of Education have identified a single motoneuron that induces the muscle of Lawrence (MOL), a male-specific muscle in the vinegar fly Drosophila. The research group has further unraveled the cellular mechanism for the male-specific MOL formation.
The research results have been published online in Current Biology on April 15, 2010. The paper's title is "Neuronal synaptic outputs determine the sexual fate of postsynaptic targets."
