Following CIHR and NSERC funded p ostdoctoral fellowships at the University of California Los Angeles\, he e stablished his laboratory at the University of Queensland (UQ) in 2009. In 2014\, he was appointed Assistant Professor at the University of Californ ia Irvine and was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 2016. In 2017\, he returned to the Queensland Brain Institute where he is currently Professor and Founding Director of the UQ Centre for RNA in Neuroscience. Prof Bredy was awarded an ARC Australian Research Fellowship (2010-2014)\ , a Science Without Borders Special Visiting Professorship from the Brazil ian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (2015-20 17) and\, more recently\, an NHMRC Senior Research Fellowship (2018-2022). In 2014\, he was recipient of the A.E. Bennett Research Award from the So ciety for Biological Psychiatry for contributions to international researc h by a young investigator and\, in 2017\, he received a NARSAD Independent Investigator Award for his work on long noncoding RNAs and memory. He is currently on the Editorial Board for the Journal of Neurochemistry and Neu robiology of Learning and Memory\, and serves on Council for the Molecular and Cellular Cognition Society. Research in the Bredy laboratory is focus ed on understanding how the genome is connected to the environment\, and h ow this relationship shapes brain and behaviour throughout life. The group is particularly interested in RNA-based mechanisms including non-coding R NAs and RNA modification\, and how they regulate the formation and mainten ance of neural plasticity and long-term fear-related memories\, particular ly within the context of phobia and post-traumatic stress disorder with th e ultimate goal of revealing the potential of RNA-based therapeutics as an avenue toward the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders characterized b y cognitive impairment.\n DTSTART:20250926T150000Z DTEND:20250926T160000Z LOCATION:CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1A3\, Goodman Cancer Institute\, Karp 501 \, 1160 av. des Pins SUMMARY:Special Invited Seminar Talk 'RNA in Neuroscience' with Prof. Timot hy Bredy URL:/sbms/channels/event/special-invited-seminar-talk- rna-neuroscience-prof-timothy-bredy-367613 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
