Current Research
node:field_content_summary | entity_field
We are particularly interested in understanding how abused drugs, stress and social interactions modulate reward systems to ultimately modify voluntary behavior.
node:body | entity_field
Experimentally, we are approaching these questions with a diverse set of techniques that include whole-genome transcriptional profiling, high-resolution neuroanatomy, and analysis of high-content behavioral outputs.
