Research Interests

My background is in neuroanatomy and I use experimental animal models for circuit tracing and modulation. Much of my research has focused on the structure and function of corticofugal pathways, primarily in relation to learning and memory paradigms, and at the DRCMR I combine chemogenetical neuronal activation (eDREADDs) with fMRS and fMRI studies.
