Nina K. Popova - Genetic Mutations

Author Information

Nina K. Popova is a distinguished researcher affiliated with the Institute of Cytology and Genetics, Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences, located in Novosibirsk, Russia. Her work primarily focuses on the genetics of neurotransmission and neurotrophic factors, with a particular emphasis on serotonin receptors and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) systems. Her research contributes significantly to understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying neuropsychiatric disorders and their treatment.

Research Contributions

Nina K. Popova has made substantial contributions to the field of genetics and neurobiology. Her research explores the intricate interactions between serotonin receptors and neurotrophic factors, such as BDNF, in relation to behavioral and neuronal plasticity. Her studies have advanced knowledge on how genetic backgrounds influence responses to antidepressants like Fluoxetine, and how stress and chronic drug treatments impact the brain's neurochemical systems. Her work has implications for understanding the effects of spaceflight on brain plasticity and examining the genetic underpinnings of aggressive behavior induced by fear.
