We are an interdisciplinary lab housed within the Department of Molecular, Cellular & Developmental Biology and the Department of Psychology & Neuroscience at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
Our lab studies the mechanistic basis for individual differences in behavior and how these impact likelihood to develop mental illness. Our work utilizes prairie voles, mice, and post-mortem human tissue, in advanced neurogenetic and circuit-level analysis to better understand how genes and environment shape who we are.
