Fields of Research
- Molecular Basis of Disease
- Neurobiology and Behavior
- Serotonin Pharmacology
Research Summary
My lab studies the molecular and cellular systems involved in stress and addiction.
Research Statement
My laboratory investigates the interface of pharmacology, molecular neuroscience, and behavior. We use strategies that span several levels of organization from RNA regulation, protein translation, cellular plasticity, and neural circuit level analysis of complex behaviors relating to stress and addiction models. We use rat and mouse behavioral models as well as in vitro cultures of cell lines and primary neurons to study components of intracellular signaling pathways.
