FBS Career path seminar
15:00-16:30
Professor Song will also talk about his work on auditory information processing.
Functional specialization of auditory cortidal subfields
Like the visual cortes, the auditory cortex has many subfields. In contract fo the visual cortex, the role of each subfield, or the functional specialization of the subfield, in th auditory cortex is unknown. Using real-time opticl imaging techniques, our labortor has made some contribution to the parcellation of auditory cortex into subfields, in a number of species. Current model of the auditory cortex proposes that the auditory cortex has a core region surrounded by a belt region; each region has several svbfields. In this seminar, I will present our recent evidence on the functional specialization of subfields in the core region
17:00-19:30
Career Path Seminar followed by a buffet party
Dr. Wen-Jie Song
(Professor, Kumamoto University School of Medicine)
Professor Song was born in China and came to Japan in 1985 as an international graduate student of Osaka University. He got Ph.D. degree at the Graduate School of Engineering Science and then started towork there as an assistant professor. After a ph.D. study in the USA, he was appointed to be an associate professor in Osaka University. In 2006, he was promoted a full Professor of Kumamoto University.
He will talk about how he lived through and succeeded in a foreign country, Japan.
