The aim of this Network is to mobilise the European scientific expertise in molecular and cellular neurobiology, in order to investigate precisely and quantitatively all the aspects of neurotransmission – at the levels of the molecule, the supra-molecular assembly, the neuronal cell and neuronal network – in a specific neuronal system that is involved in many neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia and drug abuse. The resulting integrated knowledge will not only provide relevant, up-to-date information, methods and tools for the diagnosis and treatment of such disorders, but also form a firm substrate to link the function of the neurobiological structures and the implementation of cognitive and mental abilities.
