Project 2

Overseas (Canada) honours project on cannabinoid heterodimers in rat cognition

A new Neuroscience Honours exchange programme between UWA and Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada will be operating in 2008. This programme will cover travel costs and perhaps some additional expenses. My colleague, Prof Richard J Beninger at Queen’s University and I wish to collaborate on a project involving the possible role of cannabinoid receptors and CB1:D2 heterodimers in reward-related learning in rats. Prof Beninger will be visiting Perth in November, 2007. If you have a desire to travel overseas for an honours project on this topic, please email me to arrange a meeting this November with Prof Beninger
