Principal Investigator
Research Interest:
Understanding the molecular basis of behaviors relevant to stress and the actions of fast antidepressant and anxiolytic drugs, aiming to identify specific circuits, neuronal subpopulations and synaptic mechanisms involved in these responses.
Postdoctoral Scholars
Research Interest:
Excitatory and inhibitory circuit dynamics mediating stress-related behaviors and (mal)adaptive fear responses
Graduate Students
