Neural Coding and Molecular Basis of Memory Processes

The long-term goal of our laboratory is to study the molecular and neural mechanisms underlying normal and abnormal memory processes.  Over the past years, we have made some progress toward these goals by taking an integrated approach that combines genomics, proteomics, mouse genetics, neurophysiological, computational, and behavioral techniques.
