Neuron–glia synapses in the brain: properties, diversity and functions of NG2 glia

  • Christian Steinhäuser

    Studied physics at the Friedrich-Schiller Universität Jena. He received a PhD at the Institute for Neurobiology and Brain Research, Academy of Sciences, Magdeburg and the Faculty of Biology, University of Jena on the functional analysis of Na+ channels in pyramidal neurons freshly isolated from the hippocampus. After habilitation in physiology, in 1997 he moved to Bonn as a professor for Experimental Neurobiology at the Medical Faculty of the Rheinische Friedrich- Wilhelms-Universität. In 2007, he founded the Institute of Cellular Neurosciences at University of Bonn that he chairs since. He employs molecular, electrophysiological and imaging techniques to investigate the role of glial cells in information processing in the normal and epileptic brain.

    Studied medicine and informatics in Bonn, Hagen and London and received an MD at the Medical Faculty of the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms- Universität Bonn. After habilitation in neurophysiology he accepted a W2 professorship for Experimental Neurophysiology at Neurosurgery Hospital, Bonn. Since 2014 he is a Research Chair at the Neurosurgery Hospital. His research is focused on the analysis of neuron-glia signaling, pre- and extrasynaptic regulation of glutamatergic neurotransmission, Ca2+ -induced vesicular release and synaptic plasticity.
